We model uniform and discriminatory auctions in wholesale electricity markets. High variability of electricity prices is often explained by exogenous economic factors. We, however, show that it can result endogenously from suppliers' strategic bidding, and that the connection between demand and...

In this technical note, we provide a complete proof of a theorem about the equilibrium structure in a Bertrand-Edgeworth Auction with demand elasticity. It is a companion to our full paper in B-E Auction (Hu, et al, 2010). The analysis in this note largely repeats the analysis in the original...

Motivated by supply competitions in the service sector, we consider a version of the Bertrand-Edgeworth game where capacitated suppliers compete in prices to serve a deterministic demand and a price cap is imposed exogenously. We characterize the equilibrium structure for games with multiple...
