In the restructured environment of electricity market, firstly the generating companies and the customers are looking for maximizing their profit and secondly independent system operator is looking for the stability of the power network and maximizing social welfare. In this paper, a one way auction in the electricity market for the generator companies is considered in both perfect and imperfect competition cases. A new model is provided to use the historical data of power market in the state of competition with imperfect information in which two probability functions were simultaneously used for the estimation of required information about each generator company. Nash equilibrium in the game theory is used to find the stability point in the biding strategy of generator companies. The effect of network conditions like limitation of transmission lines, network load, maximum generation of each generator company and the imperfect estimation of information about other competitors on the profit of generator companies and also on the market power of the generators in two mentioned competition methods were shown in the numerical simulation.

In this paper, the concept of Conjectural Variation (CV) is used to specify optimal generation decision for generation companies (Gencos). The conjecture of Genco is defined as its belief or expectation about the reaction of rivals to change of its output. Using CV method, each Genco has to learn and estimate strategic behaviors of other competitors from available historical market operation data. Therefore, accuracy of generation decision depends on the accuracy of estimating other competitors’ decision within CV context. In this paper, adjusted Lerner index is used to improve the accuracy of estimating CV parameter. In electricity market, the adjusted Lerner index can be directly computed using price, market shares, marginal cost and industry elasticity of demand. It must be noted that due to repeated power market, Gencos need to modify their behavior over time. In response to this need, dynamic learning is considered in case studies which improve results.
