Abstract
This paper introduces a multi-agent dynamical system ofthe interaction between electricity consumers, the electricity distribution system operator, and the technological(generation, storage) and regulatory (tariff design, incentive schemes) environments. For any type of environment,our dynamical system simulates the evolution of the deployment of distributed electricity generation, as well asthe evolution of the cost of distribution. The system relieson the assumption that individual electricity consumers behave statistically as rational agents, who may invest in optimised distributed renewable energy installations, if theyare cost-efficient compared to the retail electricity tariff.The deployment of these installations induces a changein the aggregated net consumption and generation of theusers of a distribution network. By modelling the cost recovery mechanism of the distribution system operator, thesystem simulates the evolution of the retail electricity tariffin response to such a change in the aggregated consumption and production.
