We analyze the interactions between different renewable support schemes and the benefits of real-time pricing (RTP) using a stylized economic model with a detailed demand-side representation calibrated to the German market. We find that there are considerable differences between a market premium...

Common intuition holds that retail real-time pricing (RTP) of electricity demand should become more beneficial in markets with high variable renewable energy (VRE) supply mainly due to increased price volatility. Using German market data, we test this intuition by simulating long-run electricity...

Despite political activities to foster a low-carbon energy transition, Germany currently sees a considerable number of new coal power plants being added to its power mix. There are several possible drivers for this "dash for coal", but it is widely accepted that windfall profits gained through...

Im Kern eines Instrumentenmixes für die deutsche Energie- und Klimapolitik sollte nach Ansicht von Andreas Löschel, Universität Münster, eine allgemeine CO2-Bepreisung stehen, die einen ökonomisch sinnvollen und langfristigen Rahmen für die umfangreiche Transformation setzt. Bei...
