Abstract :
This study examines the price estimation capability of MAIS (Multi-Agent Intelligent Simulator) when two types of agents with different learning capabilities coexist in a power trading market. This study identifies that the proposed MAIS, considering the coexistence of different types of agents, can improve its estimation accuracy of wholesale electricity price. This study also reexamines the estimation capability of the MAIS on a data set generated by the mean reverting method. Using a real data set regarding PJM and its simulated data sets, we confirm that the proposed MAIS performs as well as the other well-known computer science approaches (SVM: Support Vector Machines, NN: Neural Networks, and GA: Genetic Algorithm) in terms of price estimation.
