A cross-border market model

On the XBID-market 13 European countries can trade electricity between each other. Like other intraday electricity markets, this is handled using a limit order book. However, cross-border trading is limited via the total amount of available transmission capacities during a trading session. We present a cross-border market model between two countries and want to give insight into the interactions on this market. We introduce a so-called reduced-form representation of the market and a capacity process which may restrict cross-border trades in each direction. Assuming that the capacity process is non-restricted, we are able to derive heavy traffic approximations of the standing volumes and the capacity process. We will further motivate a candidate for the heavy traffic approximation of the restricted market model.
