Assessment of Clean-Coal Strategies: The Questionable Merits of Carbon Capture-Readiness

Madlener, Reinhard; Rohlfs, Wilko - Institut für Future Energy Consumer Needs and Behavior … - 2012

In this paper we investigate the value of capture-readiness by modeling the cost effectiveness of various alternative technological options and focusing on different cleancoal technology pathways. The modeling framework developed is based on stochastic net present value calculations. It allows...

Optimal Power Generation Investment: Impact of Technology Choices and Existing Portfolios for Deploying Low-Carbon Coal Technologies

Madlener, Reinhard; Rohlfs, Wilko - Institut für Future Energy Consumer Needs and Behavior … - 2013

In this paper we identify optimal strategies for the investment in power generation assets. The investments are characterized by multiple available technologies whose economic value is driven by a technology-specific combination of several underlying assets, such as the price of fuel,...

Valuation of CCS-Ready Coal-Fired Power Plants: A Multi-Dimensional Real Options Approach

Madlener, Reinhard; Rohlfs, Wilko - Institut für Future Energy Consumer Needs and Behavior … - 2010

plant is later retrofitted with carbon capture and storage (CCS). A capture-ready power plant with lower retrofit costs is … compared with a conventional one and higher CCS retrofit costs. The stochastic variables considered are the price of … electricity, the price of CO2 permits, capturing, transporting and storing (CTS) costs and CCS retrofit investment costs. Fuel …

Cost Effectiveness of Carbon Capture-Ready Coal Power Plants with Delayed Retrofit

Madlener, Reinhard; Rohlfs, Wilko - Institut für Future Energy Consumer Needs and Behavior … - 2010

In this paper we investigate the cost effectiveness of coal-fired CCS plants. Two different model approaches are used. First, we consider marginal costs to determine the impact of fuel and CO2 certificate prices on electricity generation cost. Second, we apply a net present value evaluation to...
