Book Real options as an alternative investment analysis method in the electric power industry

Download or read book Real options as an alternative investment analysis method in the electric power industry written by Jose Mari M. Balledos and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The electric utility industry has been constrained by government regulation to use the minimum revenue requirement method in making capital investment decisions. As the industry moves into open competition, the minimum revenue method will not be sufficient to enable companies to make appropriate investment decisions. Competitive industries usually apply Discounted Cash Flow methods to value investment opportunities. While this method has its strengths, it also has its limitations. Thus, an alternative valuation method is needed to provide managers in the industry with a better framework for decision making. RealOptions is presented as an alternative to these two methods.

Book Alternative Electrical Energy Sources for Maine

Download or read book Alternative Electrical Energy Sources for Maine written by William J. Jones and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Energy Laboratory of the Mass. Inst. of Tech. was retained by the Central Maine Power Company to evaluate several technologies as possible alternatives to the construction of Sears Island# 1 (a 600 MWe coal fired generating plant scheduled for startup in 1986). This is an appendix to Report MIT-EL 77-010 which presents the results of the study for one of the technologies. The assessments were made for the Central Maine Power Company on the basis that a technology should be: 1) an alternative to a base-load electric power generation facility. Base-load is definedas ability to furnish up to a rated capacity output for 6 5 7 0 hrs. per year. 21 not restricted to a single plant. It may be several plants within the state of Maine. The combined output, when viewed in isolation, must be a separate, "standalone", source of power. 3) available to deliver energy by 1985.

This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electricity, supplied reliably and affordably, is foundational to the U.S. economy and is utterly indispensable to modern society. However, emissions resulting from many forms of electricity generation create environmental risks that could have significant negative economic, security, and human health consequences. Large-scale installation of cleaner power generation has been generally hampered because greener technologies are more expensive than the technologies that currently produce most of our power. Rather than trade affordability and reliability for low emissions, is there a way to balance all three? The Power of Change: Innovation for Development and Deployment of Increasingly Clean Energy Technologies considers how to speed up innovations that would dramatically improve the performance and lower the cost of currently available technologies while also developing new advanced cleaner energy technologies. According to this report, there is an opportunity for the United States to continue to lead in the pursuit of increasingly clean, more efficient electricity through innovation in advanced technologies. The Power of Change: Innovation for Development and Deployment of Increasingly Clean Energy Technologies makes the case that America's advantagesâ€"world-class universities and national laboratories, a vibrant private sector, and innovative states, cities, and regions that are free to experiment with a variety of public policy approachesâ€"position the United States to create and lead a new clean energy revolution. This study focuses on five paths to accelerate the market adoption of increasing clean energy and efficiency technologies: (1) expanding the portfolio of cleaner energy technology options; (2) leveraging the advantages of energy efficiency; (3) facilitating the development of increasing clean technologies, including renewables, nuclear, and cleaner fossil; (4) improving the existing technologies, systems, and infrastructure; and (5) leveling the playing field for cleaner energy technologies. The Power of Change: Innovation for Development and Deployment of Increasingly Clean Energy Technologies is a call for leadership to transform the United States energy sector in order to both mitigate the risks of greenhouse gas and other pollutants and to spur future economic growth. This study's focus on science, technology, and economic policy makes it a valuable resource to guide support that produces innovation to meet energy challenges now and for the future.
