Summary
|
New environmental regulation of CO2 emissions along with other proposed and existing regulations will have a major impact on the electric power industry. This project would build on two existing PSERC projects that examine these issues, one for the Northeastern US and an ongoing project that examines the West to develop a national model. The project will utilize the superOPF planning tool (under development at Cornell with CERTS funding) that allows for multi-period optimization, unit availability, optimal investment in generation, demand response and environmental modeling. The effects of concurrent market-based environmental and energy regulations on the costs, operations, and pollution emissions of a national electric market will be investigated.
