From cradle to grave? On optimal nuclear waste disposal

نویسندگان

چکیده

This paper analyses socially optimal nuclear plant operation and waste management. Two waiting rules are derived: the first characterizes continuation of electricity production, second gives disposal date. Both balance cost benefit either continuing production or delaying into a deep geological repository. In addition, multiple regulatory options investigated. The optimized storage forms payment that should be collected from power firm fund. properties this other including tax to paid at shutdown date investigated, it is shown money can by plant-specific constant fee targeted firm’s profit output. Numerical illustration shows repository cost-minimizing solution only with very low interest rates. For rates above one percent store in an on-ground facility perpetuity.
