The Real Cost of Electrical Energy
Discussion of the comparative cost of electricity and the carbon dioxide emissions that would result from a wind, solar, nuclear or natural gas generation grid.
The presentation is 1 hour followed by a question and answer period and will provide information from OSPE’s energy advocacy studies, including:
• Why the demand profile is critical to understanding the real cost of production
• Price confusion - the different prices for electricity (HOEP, GA, LCOE, TOU)
• The cost impact of load following (dispatching)
• The importance of effectively integrating the various diverse technologies
• Solar and wind production profiles and what that means for the grid
• The total delivered energy cost of solar, wind, nuclear and natural gas
