Última An Economic Assessment of Space Solar Power as a Source of Electricity for Space-Based Activities AgEcon MacAuley, Molly K.; Davis, James F.. We develop a conceptual model of the economic value of space solar power (SSP) as a source of power to in-space activities, such as spacecraft and space stations. We offer several estimates of the value based on interviews and published data, discuss technological innovations that may compete with or be complementary to SSP, and consider alternative institutional arrangements for government and the private sector to provide SSP.

Ano: 2001 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/10794 China’s Electricity Market Reform and Power Plants Efficiency AgEcon Ma, Chunbo; Zhao, Xiaoli; Ma, Qian; Zhao, Yue. In the past three decades, Chinese electricity industry has experienced a series of regulatory reforms serving different purposes at different stages. In 2002, the former vertically integrated electricity utility - the State Power Corporation (SPC) – was divested and the generation sector was separated from the transmission and distribution networks in an effort to improve production efficiency. In this paper we study the impact of the reform on efficiency of fossil-fired power plants using plant-level data during 2000-2008. Our results from the data envelopment analysis (DEA) and panel regressions show that: 1) the total factor productivity (TFP) growth mainly comes from technological change; 2) the technical efficiency of previously SPC-managed power...

Ano: 2011 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/117811 Creating the Conditions for International Business Expansion: The Impact of Regulation on Economic Growth in Developing Countries - A Cross-Country Analysis AgEcon Jililian, Hossein; Kirkpatrick, Colin; Parker, David. The role of an effective regulatory regime in promoting economic growth and development and therefore international business has generated considerable interest among researchers and practitioners in recent years. In particular, building effective regulatory structures in developing countries is not simply an issue of the technical design of the most appropriate regulatory instruments, it is also concerned with the quality of supporting regulatory institutions and capacity. Many of the institutions that support markets are publicly provided and the effectiveness of these regulatory institutions can be expected to be an important determinant of how well markets function. This paper explores the role of regulation in affecting economic outcomes using an...

Ano: 2003 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/30554 The Environmental Impacts of Electricity Restructuring: Looking Back and Looking Forward AgEcon Palmer, Karen L.; Burtraw, Dallas. In the mid-1990s, when the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission was preparing to release Order 888 requiring open access to the transmission grid, the commission, environmental groups, and the Environmental Protection Agency, among others, raised the question of how open access and greater competition in wholesale electricity markets might affect the environment. If open access worked as expected, underutilized older coal-fired generators in the Midwest and elsewhere might find new markets for their power, leading to associated increases in air pollution emissions. Restructuring also might lead to retirements of inefficient nuclear facilities, whose generation would be replaced by fossil generation, further increasing emissions. On the other hand, some...

Ano: 2005 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/10656 The Second-Best Use of Social Cost Estimates AgEcon Burtraw, Dallas; Krupnick, Alan J.. A significant literature has developed to estimate the damages to third parties from new electricity generation technologies. This paper focuses on how such estimates can be profitably used in the present regulatory environment, and in the potential new environment that may result from restructuring in the electricity industry.

Ano: 1996 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/10693 The Social Costs of Electricity: Do the Numbers Add Up? AgEcon Krupnick, Alan J.; Burtraw, Dallas. Several recent studies have mounted major efforts to estimate the social cost of electricity generation. This paper provides an overview of this literature and a focused qualitative and quantitative comparison of the most comprehensive and rigorous of these studies. The paper also provides a synthesis that can help reduce the cost of future applications of these methods.
