Welcome to Portal MASCEM

MASCEM is a multi-agent simulator of competitive electricity markets with the purpose of facilitating the study of the restructured and complex electricity markets. It enables the simulation of the players that participate in the market, such as buyers, sellers and VPPs, with their own decision-support resources, and allowing the definition of their offers and strategies, granting them competitive advantage in the market.

As market players are complex and independent entities, with different purposes, objectives and behaviours, taking their own decisions by interacting with each other, MASCEM was developed as a multi-agent based simulator. It modulates the complexity of dynamic market players, their interaction and medium/long-term gathering of information (data and experience in the market).
