Economic impacts of the discontinuity of power services by using an electricity market model

摘要

This study focuses on obtaining the regulatory tariffs from a microeconomic point of view, through studies on the optimization of investments and cost minimization, and focus on the issue of compensation to the customer due to deficiencies in the quality of the supplied energy by using the TAROT (optimized tariff) model. The methodology of direct compensation to the customer aims to ensure that investments in power quality are not maid below the values which guarantees the continuity goals imposed by the regulatory agency, providing, in case of violation of the standards, an added value to the consumer close to that he would get with the target indexes. This methodology was applied in a Brazilian distribution company, and the resulting tariffs were compared against each other as well as the resulting aggregated economic values.
