A Cost Benefit Analysis of Wind Power
Concern over global warming has led policy makers worldwide to accept the importance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. As wind generation does not itself create any harmful emissions, policy makers often promote it as a means of reducing national emission levels while also meeting renewable obligations. In fact, wind generation has been the fastest growing form of renewable energy in Europe...
متن کاملWind-Shear System Cost-Benefit Analysis
A series of fatal commercial aviation accidents starting in the 1970s led to the identification of thunderstorm-related wind shear as a critical hazard to aircraft takeoffs and landings. In aggregate, these accidents resulted in over 400 fatalities and pressured the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to develop effective warning technologies. In response, the aviation community invested in a...
متن کاملCost-Benefit Analysis of Leaning Against the Wind: Are Costs Always Larger Than Benefits, and Even More So with a Less Effective Macroprudential Policy?∗
Leaning against the wind”(of asset prices and credit booms) (LAW), that is, a somewhat tighter monetary policy and a higher policy interest rate, has costs in terms of a weaker economy with higher unemployment and lower inflation. It has been justified by possible benefits in terms of a lower probability and severity of a future financial crisis. A worse macro outcome in the near future is then...
متن کاملEcological and economic cost-benefit analysis of offshore wind energy
Wind energy has experienced dramatic growth over the past decade. A small fraction of this growth has occurred offshore, but as the best wind resources become developed onshore, there is increasing interest in the development of offshore winds. Like any form of power production, offshore wind energy has both positive and negative impacts. The potential negative impacts have stimulated a great d...
متن کاملCost- Benefit Analysis of Gas to Liquids Project for the South-Pars Gas Field of Iran
This paper presents an economic evaluation of gas to liquids (GTL) project using “South-Pars” gas field of Iran based on the latest actual performing GTL projects. Iran has the world’s largest reserves of natural gas and can satisfy the projected long-term market demand of GTL products which have lower pollution and higher quality than refinery products. The results of cost-benefit analysis sho...
