Public utility pricing under risk; The case of self-rationing: Comment and extension
回顾了一个包含不确定性的电力负荷管理模型，允许客户需求在计费周期内波动且存在不完全相关性，分析了熔断机制下用户与公用事业的行为，指出需求价格在计费周期内每时每刻都有效，并建议将需求与能源价格分离。
This paper reviews a previously offered model of electricity load management containing uncertainties. This analysis allows individual customer demand to fluctuate within a billing period. Also, it allows diversity or imperfect correlation among customer demands. The behavioral effects are examined for a fuse that allows utilities and customers to incur costs or ration the loads under excess demand charges. The behavioral implication is that the demand price is effective at each instant of the billing period. The fuse analogy suggests that demand and energy prices be kept separate, and that behavior is best understood as a two-stage procedure.
