Abstract

In this paper, the need of suitable mechanism for wind power trading is discussed and the tariff rate decided by state electricity commissions is compared with the rates a wind generator can avail if it opts for unscheduled interchange rates/ day ahead tariff. A Wind generator must buy or sell energy production deviations as per prediction errors when they bid in day-ahead energy markets. A suitable mechanism can mitigate market power and wind generation can be promoted to feed more green power in the grid.
