The investment decision in new generation capacity is especially relevant because the electricity supply is indispensable due to its utilization in the majority of the productive processes.

So, we develop a simulation model of the Spanish electricity market to determine if the electricity prices, shaped in the wholesaler market and the power guarantee, actual investment incentive, provide a suitable sign with regard to the moment and amount of new investments to be made.
