  • Abstract
    A method to predict the optimal energy production of a profit maximizing power producer in an oligopoly electricity market is presented. The cases where producers have incomplete information about the operating costs of rival producers are highlighted. Cournot noncooperative game theory is used to determine the oligopoly electricity market equilibrium state that corresponds to the optimal supply quantity of each power producer.
