Electricity Price Fundamentals in Deregulated Markets: A Bibliometric Analysis
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
The liberalization processes of electricity markets in different countries generated a new way to define the electricity prices, which has increased difficulty for modeling and analyzing their dynamics. This study presents a bibliometric analysis of electricity price fundamentals in deregulated markets. Systematic research through the Scopus database for the timespan January 1979 - April 2021, allowed observing 636 indexed documents. The results showed an increase in the document number per year in the last two decades. Besides, the most productive countries were China, the United States, and Germany regarding the number of publications. However, the United States, Canada, and Iran had the highest impact according to the ratio between the number of documents and the number of citations. The main fundamentals were economic and market conditions, weather, operation of the power system, and customer demand. Similarly, the investigation trend in last years is price forecasting with greater efficiency.
