Abstract :
Electricity has been considered as a heterogeneous product even in today´s electricity marketplace. However, end-customers have different needs and preferences, such that choosing the level of availability that they are willing to pay for becomes a key issue. This paper elaborates the concept by differentiating electricity in multiple availability types and multiple types of classes.
