            Abstract : 
This article introduces a graphic methodology that makes it possible to compare over a wide range of probabilities the revenues that a generator obtains using different policies to decide how much energy to sell under long-term contracts and how much on the spot market. Examples are provided based on results for the Colombian Power System.
