Investments in new generation, specially in renewables, grew up in several countries contributing to change the generation mix. Among these new technologies, wind power became an important source in the sense that the share in installed capacity is large in countries as Germany, Denmark, Spain and Portugal namely considering the prices paid to the generated power. These subsidizing schemes are in...
In the present paper, authors presents a value-based comparative analysis between electrical thermal demand tracking modes of operations at the planning stage from owner's point of view. Worth of operational strategy is evaluated using maximization of net present value (NPV) of 6-bus meshed and 14-bus radial microgrids which are assessed from optimal deployment their DERs with respect to optimal locations,...
This paper presents an economical valuation for wind energy projects according to the Ontario's feed-in tariff, the Standard Offer Program (SOP). The study is done for different wind turbines and different wind speed scenarios. Given turbine and wind speed data, the Capacity Factor (CF) of each turbine at each site was calculated. Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) for different...
To evaluate an investment project in the competitive electricity market, there are several key factors that affects the project's value: the present value that the project could bring to investor, the possible future course of actions that investor has and the project's management flexibility. The traditional net present value (NPV) criteria has the ability to capture the present value of the project's...
