low-carbon electricity production system?
- How can we expand the generation system while ensuring
appropriate levels of flexibility to accommodate both demand-related and
production-related uncertainties?
- How can we choose among alternative production facilities?
- What is the right time to invest in a given production or transmission facility?
Written in a tutorial style and modular format, the book
