This project concerns one of the most difficult aspects of the changing electric power industry, i.e. the delivery of market-driven power trades. In particular, the problem of transmission provision and pricing for the evolving electric power industry organizations is posed as a dynamically evolving process jointly driven by the technological, regulatory and business factors. The objective is to model and analyze this process for its short-term and longer-term performance under various technological and regulatory solutions. Ultimately, a decision-making problem for transmission delivery and its valuation is attempted as the problem of multi-rate feedback design in response to technical, economic and regulatory output variables. The major challenge here concerns management of various uncertainties, both physical (real) and market-related (Pigouvian) and their interdependencies. The intellectual merit of this project comes from viewing the transmission provision, pricing and regulation as a single dynamic system. The current-state-of-art in any of the sub-disciplines underlying this complex problem (engineering, economics, regulation, industry organization, finance) is such that only particular aspects of the problem get studied, assuming the other inputs to be exogenous. The approach envisioned in this project would be to thrive on formalizing the interdependencies between the technical, economic and regulatory signals. For this reason the project has a potentially huge broad impact on the way electric power is delivered and valued in the future. The same approach is used to develop new paradigms for the industry, as well as for developing educational frameworks necessary for thinking about transmission delivery and its valuation as a complex problem with many interdependencies.

该项目涉及不断变化的电力行业最困难的方面之一，即市场驱动电力行业的交付。 特别是，不断发展的电力行业组织的传输提供和定价问题是由技术，监管和业务因素共同驱动的动态发展过程。 目的是在各种技术和法规解决方案下为其短期和长期绩效建模和分析此过程。 最终，对于响应技术，经济和法规产出变量，试图将传输交付及其估值的决策问题作为多速率反馈设计问题。这里的主要挑战涉及对各种不确定性的管理，包括物理（真实）和与市场有关的（Pigouvian）及其相互依存关系。该项目的智力优点来自将传输提供，定价和调节视为单个动态系统。这个复杂问题（工程，经济学，监管，行业组织，金融）基础的任何子学科中的现行状态都是这样，只有其他投入是外来的，就只研究了问题的特定方面。该项目中设想的方法是蓬勃发展，以形式化技术，经济和监管信号之间的相互依赖性。因此，该项目对将来的电力传递和价值的方式产生了巨大的巨大影响。同样的方法也用于为该行业开发新的范式，以及开发考虑传输交付及其估值所必需的教育框架，这是许多相互依存关系的复杂问题。
