This paper looks into various models that address strategic behavior in the supply of gas by the Mexican monopoly Pemex …. The paper has three very strong technical results. First, the netback pricing rule for the price of domestic natural gas … gas it uses and the gas it flares increases the value of the Lagrange multiplier associated with the gas processing …

We discuss the implications of two price zones, i.e. one northern and southern bidding area, on the German electricity … market. In the northern zone, continuous capacity additions with low variable costs cause large regional supply surpluses in … the market dispatch while conventional capacity decreases in the southern zone. As the spatial imbalance of supply and …

We study the performance of different regulatory approaches for the expansion of electricity transmission networks in … the light of realistic demand patterns and fluctuating wind power. In particular, we are interested in the relative … demand in a very realistic way. This substantially increases the real-world applicability of results compared to previous …

In this paper we investigate the introduction of an export tax on steam coal levied by an individual country (Australia … consisting of an optimal policy problem at the upper level, and an equilibrium model of the international steam coal market … (based on COALMOD-World) at the lower level. We find that a unilaterally introduced Australian export tax on steam coal has …

We use our supply-demand framework to assess currently discussed policy …In the European Emission Trading scheme the supply of allowances exceeds emissions - cumulating, according to our … so as to hedge future carbon costs. As the surplus exceeds this hedging demand, additional allowances need to be acquired …
