REGULATION
Means the government set down the laws and rules that put
limits on and define how a particular industry or company
can operate.

COMPETITION
The competition is at two levels in deregulated power industry:
Wholesale (generation) and retail (distribution).
Pool Market

1)All energy transactions are carried out through


the pool
2)The Poolco operator is responsible for the market
settlements, unit commitment and determination of
pool price.

Issues Involved In Deregulation
Network Congestion
When the producers and consumers of the electric energy
desire to produce and consume in amounts that would
cause the transmission system to operate at or beyond one
or more transfer limit, the system is said to be congested.
Ways To Tackle Congestion
1.Price Area Congestion Management
2.Available Transfer Capability (ATC) based Congestion
Management
3.Optimal Power Flow (OPF ) based Congestion
Management.
ADVANTAGES
Electric price will decrease
