Abstract
Dynamic models vary in complexity depending on the time horizon length. In the short term, where we can reasonably assume that technology and the network topology and capacity are fixed we can model dynamics as a sequence of static equilibriums where each period may be linked to the previous ones by storage decisions. Changing conditions are reflected by demand seasonalities and variations in the nodal supplying capacities. The same amount of gross demand or supply variation may cause very different effects depending on the way it is distributed across network nodes.
