Decision-support tool for assessing future nuclear reactor generation portfolios
Capital costs, fuel, operation and maintenance (O&M) costs, and electricity prices play a key role in the economics of nuclear power plants, where especially capital costs are known to be highly uncertain. Different nuclear reactor types compete economically by having either lower and less uncertain construction costs, increased efficiencies, lower and less uncertain fuel cycles and O&M costs e...

متن کاملModel-based decision support for future OEM power-train portfolios: academic solutions for practical requirements
Meeting 21st century’s challenges of climate change and scarcity of crude oil requires the transition to alternatively powered vehicles, such as electric vehicles. As a consequence, car manufacturers have to integrate these vehicles into their product portfolios. Decisions have to be made about, for instance, the power-train to be offered in specific vehicle models and their times of introducti...
متن کاملEfficient Multi-Energy Generation Portfolios for the Future
This paper introduces the application of mean-variance portfolio theory to portfolios generating multiple forms of energy such as electricity, heating or cooling power. Portfolio theory has already been successfully applied to several cases of electricity generation planning. A general extension of this method to an arbitrary number of output energies will be developed in this paper. Instead of...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Decision Support Tool for Assessing Vessel Traffic Management Requirements for U.S. Ports
Effective vessel traffic management is critical to the safety of maritime ports and waterways. The United States and other maritime nations have had difficulty in establishing justifiable criteria for selecting ports requiring vessel traffic systems and for determining the level of sophistication of the vessel traffic management system required. Congress directed the USCG to reexamine the Vesse...
