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，即市场驱动的电力交易的交付。 特别是，不断发展的电力行业组织的输电供应和定价问题被视为一个由技术、监管和商业因素共同驱动的动态演变过程。 目标是对该过程在各种技术和监管解决方案下的短期和长期绩效进行建模和分析。 最终，传输交付及其评估的决策问题被尝试作为响应技术、经济和监管输出变量的多速率反馈设计问题。这里的主要挑战涉及各种不确定性的管理，包括物理（实际）和市场相关（庇古）及其相互依赖性。该项目的智力优势在于将输电供应、定价和监管视为一个单一的动态系统。这一复杂问题背后的任何子学科（工程、经济学、监管、行业组织、金融）的当前最新技术是，假设其他投入是外生的，则仅研究问题的特定方面。该项目设想的方法将是在技术、经济和监管信号之间的相互依赖性正式化的基础上蓬勃发展。因此，该项目对未来电力的输送和估值方式具有潜在的巨大广泛影响。同样的方法用于为行业开发新的范式，以及开发思考传输传输及其评估作为一个具有许多相互依赖性的复杂问题所必需的教育框架。
