SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Political Communication Working Group (PCWG)
DESCRIPTION:The Political Communication Working Group (PCWG) is an interdisciplinary workshop for graduate students and faculty to convene and discuss how political messages are produced\, disseminated\, and interpreted in contemporary media environments. Our core research topics focus on the evolving relationships between media\, politics\, and society. Drawing on the interdisciplinary fields of communication\, political science\, sociology\, and information science\, our members explore a wide range of topics such as public support for entertainment censorship\, climate change communication\, social learning on TikTok\, political para-social relationships\, polarization\, political biases in AI-generated content\, etc. Our sessions encourage the exchange of ideas and work across theoretical and methodological traditions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Bid Timing and Market Efficiency in the Energy Transition.
DESCRIPTION:Utility-scale batteries play an increasingly active role in electricity markets by arbitraging energy across time\, yet their efficiency depends critically on market design. This paper studies a prevalent feature of real-time electricity auctions: bid lead time\, which requires batteries to commit bids in advance of dispatch. Using comprehensive 15-minute bidding and settlement data for all utility-scale batteries in ERCOT from 2018–2025\, we document active dynamic bidding\, rapid responses to price shocks\, and the importance of recent price information for forecasting. We develop an equilibrium model of electricity markets with dynamic battery bidding and show that longer bid lead times substantially reduce operational efficiency and profits\, and dampen complementarity between batteries and renewable energy. Allowing bids to depend on state of charge significantly mitigates these losses. Our results highlight bid lead time as a key determinant of battery performance and market outcomes.
