We develop a theoretical model of long-run investment decisions on capacity in the context of a liberalized electricity … the level of capacity that maximizes social welfare, and compare it to a decentralized outcome. We show that in the … absence of any regulation, private investment decisions on capacity unambiguously lead to a socially sub-optimal outcome, and …

The large-scale combined production of methanol and electricity from natural gas is simulated and evaluated from an …. Electricity is produced in a combined-cycle plant. It is supposed to add the energy production unit to an already existing … methanol plant without decreasing the methanol production. The economic analysis shows that, given the low natural gas price in …
