Cost-Effectiveness of Renewable Electricity Policies
We analyze policies to promote renewable sources of electricity. A renewable portfolio standard raises electricity prices and primarily reduces gas-fired generation. A “knee” of the cost curve exists between 15% and 20% goals for 2020 in our central case, and higher natural gas prices lower the cost of greater reliance on renewables. A renewable energy production tax credit lowers electricity p...
متن کاملEconomic Growth and Renewable Energy in Iran
Energy plays an active role in sustainable development in Iran, both in the sustainable and the development aspects. This study aims to estimate the nexus of economic growth and the renewable energy in Iran during 1981-2012. We employ the Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to estimate a log-linear equation. The results suggest that renewable energy consumption is an insignificant driv...
متن کاملInvestigating carbon emission abatement long-term plan with the aim of energy system modeling; case study of Iran
Increasing electric vehicles usage, as a promising solution for environmental issues, might have unexpected implications, since it entails some changes in different sectors and scales in energy system. In this respect, this research aims at investigating the long-term impacts of electric vehicles deployment on Iran's energy system. Accordingly, Iran's energy system was analyzed by LEAP model in...
متن کاملInvestigating the Role of Economic Policies on the Utilization of New Energy in Iranian Power Plants (Case Study: Subsidy Policies, Pricing, and Cost Reduction)
Energy is considered as one of the most urgent and critical requirements of development.The high demand for energy from fossil fuels makes economic growth easy, but the current energy system is not sustainable due to its negative effects on the environment and human life. Sustainable development has been defined as a development that will provide the needs of the present generation without comp...
متن کاملRenewable Electricity Policies, Heterogeneity, and Cost Effectiveness
Renewable electricity policies promote investment in renewable electricity generators and have become increasingly common around the world. Because of intermittency and the composition of other generators in the power system, the value of certain renewables—particularly wind and solar—varies across locations and technologies. This paper investigates the implications of this heterogeneity for th...
