This EPRG’s study explores and quantifies the benefits of connecting more distributed generation (with and without the use of smart connections) across different parties (Distribution Network Operators, wider society and generators)
This World Bank’s report aims to inform efforts to control black carbon emissions from diesel-based transportation in developing countries…
This paper estimates the welfare-optimal market share of wind and solar power, explicitly taking into account their output variability…
We evaluate a recent U.S. initiative to include the social cost of carbon (SCC) in regulatory decisions. To our knowledge, this paper provides the first systematic test of the extent to which applying the SCC has affected national policy. We examine all economically significant federal regulations since 2008, and obtain a surprising result: Putting a value on changes in carbon dioxide emissions does not generally affect the ranking of the preferred policy compared with the status quo…
The aim of this study is to perform a cost benefit analysis of the different options for connecting distributed generation (DG) customers in a specific constrained area (the March Grid), under the context of the Flexible Plug and Play trial
In this FEEM paper we illustrate the “direct” cost components of various policies, and then confront them with the benefits generated, that is, the damage cost avoided.
The report reviews cost-benefit literature and the policy background, defines boundary conditions and set parameters, and defines elements of cost-benefit analysis, sensitivity analysis, and qualitative impact analysis, which can be applied to smart grid projects
