MASTER THESIS Nr. 605VISUALIZATION MODULE FOR A SIMULATION PLATFORM FOR POWER TRADING Tomislav Briševac
Outline • Electricity market • Power Trading Agent Competition (PowerTAC) • Power TAC overview • Power TAC Visualizer 2013 • Conclusion and further work
Electricity market End customers Producers Retailers Wholesale market Retail market • electricity – a produced good which can be traded • trading takes place in an electricity market • main entities: • producers (generation companies) • electricity retailers • end customers • consumers • producers • prosumers
Power Trading Agent Competition • by 2020, around 35% of the total energy demand in the EU will be generated by green energy resources • question raised: market response? • answer: Power Trading Agent Competition (Power TAC) • Power TAC • competitive simulation environment which models electricity market • explores potential strategic, competitive or collusive behavior of market participants
Power TAC overview • basic time unit – timeslot = 1 day • competition = 1440 timeslots • central entities – brokers (intelligent agents) • goal – make highest profit
Power TAC project • 6 universities • University of Zagreb contribution • Power TAC Visualizer • CrocodileAgent Power TAC Visualizer 2012
Power TAC Visualizer 2013 Front-end module CSS JSF - related XHTML JavaScript JSF facelets jQuery Metro UI Ajax Primefaces HighCharts Back-endmodule Spring framework Messagess Power TAC Simulator • architecture mostly inherited from Visualizer 2012 • two modules: • front-end module • back-end module • new components: • Metro UI • HighCharts
Power TAC Visualizer 2013 design • key performance indicators (KPIs) • broker’s success in different game segments • identifying game segments in which broker’s performance could be improved • multiple modules • tasks • high level overview • enhanced analysis • push mechanism
Power TAC Visualizer 2013 data representation (1) • spider chart • high level overview of different game parts
Power TAC Visualizer 2013 data representation (2) • multiple level pie chart
Power TAC Visualizer 2013 data representation (3) • multiple pane charts • parallel analysis
Conclusion and further work • Power TAC Visualizer 2013 • enhanced game analysis • push mechanism • new GUI • Further work • more detailed game overview • generation companies visualization • wholesale clearing
