✦ Synopsis
With the formation of large RTOs and the move toward elimination of pancaked transmission rates, transmission prices need to re¯ect the increase in transmission losses as power moves across large geographical distances. In order for generators and consumers to receive correct short-and long-term signals with regard to transmission, the loss component should be accurately priced using marginal cost methods. Especially for systems with large ¯uctuations in power ¯ows, and hence losses, it is necessary to implement a locational real-time pricing mechanism of real-power losses.
