AB - In competitive electric reserve markets, the suppliers face the optimal allocation problem of their reserve capacities in order to purse their profit maximizing. Under this background, we develop a capacity allocation model as nonlinear programming. Nonlinear complementarity method is utilized to search for the optimal solution. And smoothing technique is applied to get a system of smooth equations, which can be solved by the Newton method. Numerical result shows the validity of the method.
