Focus on applied economics with quantitatively rigorous analysis to policy and regulatory issues in the sector
Evolved as a result of the infrastructure restructuring in the UK – now headquartered in US, a global economic, financial, and strategic advisory professional services firm specializing in energy and infrastructure
LEI has a number of complementary and cross-disciplinary practice areas:
Regulatory economics and market design Asset valuation, price forecasting and market analysis Expert testimony and litigation consulting Strategy advisory
LEI’s advisory experiences are complemented by a unique set of tools include network-based simulation models, cost-benefit frameworks, models of strategic bidding behavior, and real options analysis
Clients in energy industry include financial institutions, law firms, market institutions, utilities and IPPs
LEI has an extensive regulatory advisory backgroundLEI has an extensive regulatory advisory background

We have focused on the Day-Ahead LMPs in the We have focused on the Day-Ahead LMPs in the PJM market, as that is one of longest-lived nodal PJM market, as that is one of longest-lived nodal markets in the USmarkets in the US
Day-ahead LMPs are financially binding and typically cover 60% of the system load in PJM (2005 average)
Day-ahead and real time LMPs are actually converging In PJM, LMP is composed of generation marginal cost +
transmission congestion costs (other markets have also included cost of marginal losses, which PJM is also introducing)
LMPs are equal, when transmission system is unconstrained (ignoring loss component)
LMPs vary by location, when transmission system is constrained LMP is based on how energy flows – not contract paths
generators get paid at generation bus LMP load zone LMPs used for load settlement
In order to encompass many actual conditions, our modeling focused on ‘LMP areas’ rather than individual nodes

Selected timeframe is long enough to analyze trends Selected timeframe is long enough to analyze trends and the selected sample is intended to be representative and the selected sample is intended to be representative of each year of each year We sampled days (rather than We sampled days (rather than
