Abstract:

The coal power industry has generated the largest proportion of carbon dioxide emissions, which makes itself the first entity to be introduced into the national carbon market, while carbon emission costs will also have certain impacts on the settlement of electricity prices in the coal power spot market. Hence, this paper constructs a bidding scheduling model for coal-fired power units in the spot market and conducts simulation analysis with and without considering the cost of carbon emissions respectively. Finally by taking the power market of Guangdong Province as the study case, the changes in the spot market bidding and clearance of coal power units are simulated under the scenarios of so-called "with vs. without wind power output" and "different carbon markets". The results show that with the gradual improvement of the carbon market, the price and total quota amount of carbon are further tightened, and the bid price of coal-fired power units increases gradually, so does the settlement electricity price in the spot market. The average electricity clearing prices in the light, moderate, and heavy carbon markets in the summer with wind and light are 0.1607 CNY/(kW·h), 0.1863 CNY/(kW·h), and 0.2461 CNY/(kW·h), respectively, up by 0.18%, 16.14%, and 53.41% compared to the scenarios when the carbon market is not introduced.

Key words: carbon market, spot market, settlement price of electricity, cost of carbon emission, electrocarbon coupling
