As power systems become more decentralized and renewable-intensive, electricity market design faces profound challenges in ensuring adequate investment, system reliability, and affordable prices. This session examines regulatory frameworks, capacity mechanisms, ancillary services, and flexibility markets needed to support high-penetration renewable energy systems. It explores the integration of distributed energy resources, demand response, prosumer participation, and the evolving role of large energy users-from data centers to industrial facilities-in reshaping electricity market structures. The discussion addresses how market rules, price signals, and regulatory approaches must evolve to support the economics of renewable-dominated systems while maintaining grid stability and competitiveness.
