Valuing flexibility in demand-side response: A real options approach
author
Abstract:
The investment interests in the electricity industry are transmitted through various mechanisms to other economic activities. This paper considers methods for esteeming the adaptability of demand-side response (DSR) in its capacity to react to future uncertainties. The capacity to evaluate this adaptability is particularly critical for vitality frameworks speculations given their extensive and irreversible capital expenses. The primary result of this exploration is a broad survey of current real options (RO) strategies that elucidate the suppositions and use of RO for basic leadership in engineering applications. The second result is the structure of a probabilistic RO framework and operational model for DSR that evaluates its advantages as a vitality benefit for supporting diverse market price risks. The third result of this work is the improvement of a total, general and viable apparatus for making long haul multi-arranged speculation choices in future power organizes under numerous vulnerabilities.

Valuing Operational Flexibility in Manufacturing Systems Using Real Options
In this paper, we look across the manufacturing enterprise to consider opportunities to improve value by switching among suppliers, plants, and markets. We extend this model to address the reality that these switches may often take a period of transition time, rather than occur instantaneously. We value the real options associated with this flexible approach using both a lattice and Monte Carlo...

full textA Real Options-based Framework for Valuing
In recent years, considerable research has focused on understanding the value derived from market-based assets such as brands and consumer relationships with comparatively little attention being directed at business relationships. We address this gap in the literature by proposing a real options-based framework for valuing business relationships. The framework provides new insights into the rol...
