description This paper presents a short-term decision-making model for an electricity retailer with battery energy storage system (BESS) and virtual bidding through a two-stage stochastic optimization framework. In the first stage, the retailer determines the amount of power to be purchased in the day-ahead wholesale market and the optimal incremental and decremental virtual bidding strategies. In the second stage, the optimal energy storage decisions and the retailer’s involvement in the real-time market are determined. The proposed model minimizes the retailer’s expected procurement cost and generates the optimal power and virtual bidding curves in the day-ahead market. Two types of Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) are integrated in the proposed model to manage the retailer’s hourly and daily risks, respectively. Case studies with real-world data are performed to verify the retailer’s cost reduction obtained with the integration of BESS and virtual bidding and to study how the hourly and daily risk-management strategies affect the retailer’s procurement cost distribution for different risk-aversion levels.
