Quantitative analysis on structural procurement models

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

In our project, we developed a structural auction model and quantitatively examined the effects of policy measures to enhance competition in the retail power market of Japan. We used a theoretical model with asymmetricities between an incumbent and new entrants in both cost distributions and information structure, where the incumbent's cost is assumed to be common knowledge, and empirically estimated the structural parameters characterizing their cost distributions using public power procurement data.
