The economics of electricity is shaped by its physics. A well know example is the non-storability of electricity that … causes its price to fluctuate widely. More generally, physical constraints cause electricity to be a heterogeneous good along … commonly used cost indicators such as "levelized electricity costs" and "grid parity". Heterogeneity is relevant for all …
