Calculating efficient Distribution use of System (DUoS) charges for Ireland: Indicative tariffs for residential, commercial and industrial consumers

Farrell, Niall - 2023

This paper considers the design of efficient Distribution Use of System (DUoS) tariffs for the Irish electricity … both energy or capacity-related charges to recover load-varying costs. A capacityrelated charge is our preferred … structure from a predominance for energy-related charges towards a structure with a predominance for fixed or capacity …

The equity and efficiency of electricity network tariffs

Farrell, Niall; Meles, Tensay Hadush - 2023

We estimate the welfare implications of a cost-reflective 'Coasian' reform of electricity network tariffs using an … Irish case study. We find that current Distribution Use of System (DUoS) tariffs deviate considerably from a cost … tariffs represent a costly distributional policy. We demonstrate that it is more efficient to counter the regressive effects …

Electricity externalities, siting, and the energy mix: A survey

Welsch, Heinz - 2016

While early literature on electricity externalities was largely concerned with fossil fuel power generation and the associated emissions, nuclear accidents (Chernobyl, Fukushima) and the large-scale deployment of renewable energy facilities have spurred a wave of research on the externalities of...

The Economic Cost of Carbon Abatement with Renewable Energy Policies

Abrell, Jan; Kosch, Mirjam; Rausch, Sebastian - 2017

This paper exploits the randomness and exogeneity of weather conditions to identify the economic cost of decarbonization through renewable energy (RE) support policies. We find that both the aggregate cost and the distribution of cost between energy producers and consumers vary significantly...

Incentives for the long-term integration of renewable energies: A plea for a market value model

Neuhoff, Karsten; May, Nils; Richstein, Jörn - In: DIW Economic Bulletin 7 (2017) 46/47, pp. 467-476

Due to increasing shares of renewable energies in electricity production, the cost-effective system integration of these installations is becoming more and more important. Technologies and locations are viewed as system-friendly when they are more cost-efficient and easier to integrate because...

Policy implications of a world with renewables, limited dispatchability, and fixed load

Mier, Mathias - 2018

Most electricity systems face contractual fixed consumer prices in the short term, that is, load and price are fixed before the random supply of renewables like wind or solar realizes. Steam power plants also make production decisions before such a random supply realizes. These capacities cannot...
