We use city-industry data from 1890 to 1940 to identify the impact of electricity on manufacturing. We exploit cross …-industry variation in pre-electricity energy intensity combined with geographic variation in proximity to early hydroelectric power … plants. Labor productivity gains from the arrival of electricity were rapid and long-lasting. Electricity was labor …

paradigm shift in how long-term resource adequacy is determined for an electricity supply industry with significant …

Future electricity systems with tight constraints on carbon emissions will rely much more on wind and solar generation … demand response, long-duration energy storage, dispatchable low-carbon generation, or a robust market for hydrogen for non-electricity …-wide electrification, the marginal retail price of electricity should be low whenever the wholesale price is low. With automated control of …

continued prevalence: unlike in high-income countries, where regulatory mandates require utilities to satisfy all electricity … demand, utilities in developing countries respond to wholesale electricity prices. As a result, misallocation of output … across power plants can decrease the quantity of electricity supplied to end-users. We provide empirical support for this …

' transmission investment to provide the infrastructure to support competitive wholesale markets for electricity. Under a stringent … monopoly problem traditionally associated with electricity transmission networks. We extend the merchant investment model to … incorporate imperfections in wholesale electricity markets, lumpiness in transmission investment opportunities, stochastic …

In an unregulated electricity generation market, the degree to which generators in" different locations compete with … one another depends on the capacity to transmit electricity" between the locations. We study the impact of transmission …" in spurring competition and the actual electricity that flows on the line. We then investigate the" equilibria that are …

India, seeking to reduce electricity shortages, set up a new power market, in which transmission constraints sharply …
