All, I'm using the smart market module in a simulation and am having trouble interpreting the results. Specifically, when running the market with option 5 for the auction type (uniform price set by the marginal unit) the values that are returned by "dispatch(:,PRICE) " created by the "smartmarket" function are not uniform. Am I missing something? I thought any of the uniform auction types would return a uniform price for all generators. Instead, the values are uniform for all generators at a given bus but vary from bus to bus. They appear to be LMPs rather than the market price. Can anybody provide clarification?
