Comments on Main Factors Affecting Electricity Price Risk in Turkish Electricity Market

Abstract

One of the most important changes brought about by the liberalization process in Turkish electricity market that started in 2001, is the emergence of electricity price risk. Since 2003, eligible consumers have been able to purchase electricity at a price agreed upon under a bilateral agreement with their suppliers. In addition to this, electricity prices, which are outside the prices determined by Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EPDK) for non-eligible consumers and vulnerable consumers, have been formed under free market conditions since May 2006. In this respect, the purpose of this article is to examine the main factors that lead to price risk in Turkish electricity market. The factors classified under six headings in the article were examined in detail.
