Quantifying the effect of renewable generation on day–ahead electricity market prices: The Spanish case

The penetration of renewable generation has grown since the electricity sector has been deregulated. To account for that, this paper proposes a methodology to estimate the downward effect of renewable generation participation upon the day-ahead electricity market prices, since such an effect is quit...
