Ochoa, Patricia, "Policy Changes in the Swiss Electricity Market: A System Dynamics Analysis of Likely Market Responses (Dana Meadows Award Winner)", 2005 July 17-2005 July 21

ua435

The Swiss electricity market - as well as the European electricity markets, is now facing a period of fundamental structural changes. Emergent liberalisation is taking place, and nuclear dismantling is being debated. Given this scenario, it is important to evaluate market response to those changes in terms of security of supply and the viability of international exchanges - imports and exports of electricity from and to neighbouring countries. The approach we adopt to analyse various aspects of security of supply in Switzerland differs from the traditional economic methodology which focuses on equilibrium of outcomes as opposed to on how the new situation is reached. We use system dynamics simulation models, which incorporate information feedback and behavioural policies, to study scenarios of the transient period currently faced by the Swiss electricity market.
