Resumo:
Despite recent trend for investment in renewable energy, high volatility in shortterm markets still may hinder some opportunities. Forwarding contracting is essential even in Over The Counter (OTC) markets such as the Brazilian Free Trading Environment. Forward contracts allow reducing revenue uncertainty, help ensure supply adequacy by signaling generation expansion and may also be required for project financing in new ventures. Still, renewable sources face the additional risk of uncertain generation, which, in low periods, combined with high spot prices, pose the hazardous price-quantity risk. Renewable investment may be fostered by applying risk management techniques such as forward contracting, diversification and optimal investment timing. By trading contracts and exploiting the seasonal complementarity of the renewable sources, it is possible to reduce risk exposure. The problem of investment in renewable energy plants may be seen as a multistage stochastic optimization model with integer variables, which is very hard to solve. The main approaches in the current literature simplify the problem by reducing the dimensionality of the scenario tree or by assuming simplifying hypothesis on the stochastic processes. Our objective is to introduce a renewable investment valuation framework, considering the main uncertainty sources and portfolio investment alternatives. The main contribution of this work is a method to solve, by applying decomposition techniques, the problem of optimal investment in seasonal complementary renewable plants in the Brazilian energy market. This is a multistage stochastic and non-convex problem. Our investment policies are devised using an algorithm based on Stochastic Dual Dynamic Programming (SDDP). Integrality constraints are considered in the forward step, where policies are evaluated, and relaxed in the backward step, where policies are built, to ensure convexity of the recourse functions. Numerical results show that it is not possible to assume stagewise independence of the price processes. We maintain the Markovian property of the stochastic processes by a discretization of the probability space, solvable by a known extension to the SDDP method. Performance evaluation is carried out using the original data, validating our heuristic. A forward energy price model is required in our framework. We apply the Schwartz-Smith model with spot and OTC data of the Brazilian market to build such a forward price curve. The framework is able to represent the characteristics of the Brazilian FTE and may be applied to similar markets. We incorporate risk aversion with coherent measures of risk and evaluate alternative strategies based on modern risk management concepts.
