The Australian Renewable Energy Target (RET) has spurred considerable investment in renewable electricity generation, notably wind power, over the past decade. This paper considers distributional implications of the RET for different electricity customers. Using time-series regression, we show...

This paper presents a bi-level approach to support retailers in making investment decisions in renewable-based systems to provide clean electricity. The proposed model captures the strategic nature of the problem and combines capacity sizing decisions for installed technologies with pricing...

Electricity systems are increasingly characterized by distributed generation technologies, e.g. rooftop photovoltaic systems, which are used by end consumers to directly produce electricity. Additionally, empirical evidence suggests that electricity retailers exercise market power in many...

Legacy electricity retail tariffs are ill-adapted to future electricity systems and markets, particularly with regard to accommodating the multi-faceted shift toward decarbonisation. We examine how retail tariffs need to be reformed to not only meet the future revenue requirements of...

The share of renewable energy in the overall production of electricity has been increasing in recent years. However, there are worries that increase in share of solar and wind power could destabilize the grid owing to their being intermittent resources. We explore the impact of a Time of Use...
