In this paper we propose an equilibrium model that allows to analyze subsidization schemes to affect locational choices for generation investment in electricity markets. Our framework takes into account generation investment decided by private investors and redispatch as well as network...

As renewable energy depends on meteorological shocks and is non-controllable, the overall energy production becomes riskier with the rising renewable share. Although this has led to a renewed interest in storage technologies, not much consideration has been given to energy storage due to...

Despite the remarkable growth rate in the past three decades, China has been also experiencing serious misallocation, which gradually manifests its severe impediment for further development of China's economy. By introducing the index of unit factor cost, we construct a new framework of...

This paper introduces the concept of marginal labour value in the framework of perfect competition and shows that prices are proportional to marginal labour values. By this marginal analysis overcomes the classical contradiction of labour commanded and labour embodied. Furthermore the curves of...

Existence of phenomena such as unemployment and low earnings of the poorest social strata in both periods of recession and the economic boom, highlights the existence of root causes in society. Providing answers to the question: what are the causes and the solutions can be implemented to solve...

This article provides a simple account of the effect of quality competition on the extent of sequential entry accommodation for a differentiated oligopoly market characterized by locational differentiation. The model is solved with consumers seeking a “love for quality” surplus utility while...

The debate that took place at the end of 19th and the beginning of 20th century on the neoclassical income distribution theory based on the marginal productivity of the production factors is well known. The debate evolved especially around the question whether the product is exactly exhausted...

This paper studies the effect of differences in the rate of technological progress between sectors on the relative sizes of those sectors in terms of revenues. There are two sectors: a stagnant sector, where productivity does not change over time, and a progressive sector, where costs decrease...

Analyzing price data from sequential German electricity markets, namely the day-ahead and intraday auction, a puzzling but apparently systematic pattern of price premiums can be identified. The price premiums are highly correlated with the underlying demand profile. As there is evidence that...
