Enhanced Representations of Probabilistic Resource Adequacy Risk in Power System Capacity Expansion Modeling
… investment optimizations traditionally rely on capacity-based reserve margin heuristics to produce least-cost solutions that also meet probabilistic resource adequacy criteria. While these conventional strategies have always had shortcomings, they are becoming increasingly untenable as the …

Capacity Expansion Modeling of Hydrogen and Electricity with Sector Coupling in New England
Alternative fuels are necessary to achieve decarbonization, especially of sectors outside of electricity supply. Hydrogen is a promising energy carrier due to its flexibility of storage and transmission and applicability to a wide range of sectors. We model a case study of New England to …

Capacity expansion modeling of water supply in a planning support system for urban growth management
… support system enhances our ability to use water capacity expansion as an urban growth management strategy. This paper reports the development of capacity expansion modeling of water supply as part of the continuing development of such a planning support system (PEGASUS: Planning Environment for …

The Role of Natural Gas in Future Low-carbon Energy Systems
… electrical grids using an advanced, multi-period capacity expansion modeling framework with perfect foresight. We model cost-optimal grid operations, investments, and retirements through 2050 using a detailed representation of the American Southeast’s electrical grid which includes inter-region …

The Role Of Repurposing Coal Plants to Thermal Energy Storage in the Context of India
… we use a bottom-up and top-down techno-economic modeling approach to explore the value of installing commercially available, molten-salt thermal energy storage (TES) systems for repurposing existing coal power plants in the Indian context. We combine thermodynamic simulation and an economic …

Perceptions of risk in increasingly capital-intensive electricity grids : measuring the impacts of accurate cost of capital representation on investment planning for future energy systems
… financing cost representations. Through the modeling of the ERCOT electric grid using the Regional Energy Deployment System (ReEDS), this study assesses the significance of improved representation of financing costs for the various stakeholders who interact with large-scale capacity expansion …
