Do carbon offsets offset carbon?
Calel, Raphael; Colmer, Jonathan; Dechezleprêtre, Antoine - 2021
We develop and implement a new method for identifying wasted subsidies, and use it to provide systematic evidence on … the misallocation of carbon offsets in the Clean Development Mechanism - the world's largest carbon offset program. Using …

Gone with the wind? : electricity market prices and incentives to invest in thermal power plants under increasing wind energy supply
Traber, Thure (contributor); Kemfert, Claudia (contributor) - 2009
The increased wind energy supplied to many electricity markets around the world has to be balanced by reliable back up units or other complementary measures when wind conditions are low. At the same time wind energy impacts both, the utilization of thermal power plants and the market prices....

The displacement impacts of wind power electricity generation : costly lessons from Ontario
Bahramian, Pejman; Jenkins, Glenn P.; Milne, Frank - 2020
The displacement impacts of wind power generation on other generation technologies are estimated for Ontario. In addition, their annual financial benefits, costs, and international stakeholder impacts are measured. For every 100 MWh generated, almost 53 MWh of gas output and 23 MWh of hydro...

Scrapping a wind turbine : policy changes, scrapping incentives and why wind turbines in good locations get scrapped first
Mauritzen, Johannes - 2012
The most common reason for scrapping a wind turbine in Denmark is to make room for a newer turbine. The decision to scrap a wind turbine is then highly dependent on an opportunity cost that comes from the interaction of scarce land resources, technological change and changes in subsidy policy....

Control power and variable renewables a glimpse at German data
Hirth, Lion; Ziegenhagen, Inka - 2013
Control power (regulating power, balancing power) is used to quickly restore the supply-demand balance in power systems. Variable renewable energy sources (VRE) such as wind and solar power are often thought to increase the reserve requirement significantly. This paper provides a comprehensive...

Renewable energy and negative externalities : the effect of wind turbines on house prices
Droes, Martijn I.; Koster, Hans - 2014 - This version: 30 June 2014
SUMMARY - In many countries, wind turbines are constructed as part of a strategy to reduce fossil fuel dependence. In this paper, we measure the external effect of wind turbines on the transaction prices of nearby properties. Using a unique transaction price dataset covering the period 1985-2011...
