The quest to quantify the value of lost load: A critical review of the economics of power outages

Check-out paper below. Short summarizing thread incoming! 👇

sciencedirect.com/science/articl… I distinguish applications of VoLL btwn: (1) cost-benefit analysis for centralized reliability-enhancing infrastructure investments & (2) decentralized demand rationing during electric supply shortages (like what’s discussed in @California_ISO this week).

🚨🚨 New paper alert! 🚨🚨

If you like to get wonky with electricity rate design, this paper (and thread) may be for you. We’ll have it all: fixed charges, grid defection, solar, storage, reliability, and maps to tell the story.

1/9 Image Paper title: “Should I stay or should I go? The importance of electricity rate design for grid defection” out in Applied Energy.
