## Suggested reading order 建议阅读顺序

1. **New to power markets entirely 电力市场零基础** → `primers/grid/01–05` in order 按序阅读
2. **New to PJM 不熟悉 PJM** → `pjm/market_primer_*` → `pjm/design_models_*`
3. **New to China's market 不熟悉中国市场** → `china/market_vendor_dd_*` §1 → `china/product_design_*`
4. **Business/competitive view 商业与竞争视角** → the two vendor DD docs 两份供应商尽调 → synthesis sections 综合研判章节
5. **Modeling 建模视角** → `primers/newsvendor_en.md` + `primers/stochastic_optimization_en.md` → `pjm/design_models_*` (A–C + newsvendor) → `china/product_design_*` (Model D math)

## Conventions 体例约定

- **Bilingual parity 双语对应**: EN and ZH versions carry identical section
  numbering; edits should land in both. 中英文版本章节编号一致；修改须同步两版。
- **Chinese markdown bold 中文粗体**: `**` markers are padded with ASCII
  spaces (`文字 **粗体** 文字`) to render correctly next to full-width CJK
  punctuation in strict CommonMark renderers. 中文粗体两侧加半角空格，以规避
  CJK 标点导致的渲染问题。
- **Terms of art 术语**: each report carries its own glossary appendix;
  cross-market contrasts (e.g. BORD vs 两个细则, mechanism price vs PTC/ITC)
  are defined where first used. 各报告自带术语表附录。
- **Claims hygiene 数据口径**: vendor uplift figures are marketing claims on
  non-comparable baselines; private-company data is third-party-sourced.
  Treat accordingly. 服务商"提升"数字为不可比基准上的营销口径，非上市公司数据
  转引自第三方，使用须谨慎。
- **Point-in-time principle 时点原则**: the documents repeatedly rely on
  as-of-date information sets (both for modeling and for market facts);
  when updating, note the as-of date. 文档反复依赖"以当时为准"的信息集；
  更新时请注明数据时点。

## Provenance 来源说明

Documents originated from an extended design discussion (July 2026) covering
PJM public data, renewable DA bidding theory (newsvendor + spread), vendor
landscapes in both markets, China's Document-136 reform and MLT–spot
mechanics. 文档源自 2026 年 7 月的一次系列设计讨论，涵盖 PJM 公开数据、
新能源日前竞价理论（报童模型与价差）、中美两地服务商格局、中国 136号文改革
与中长期–现货机制。
