Welfare effects of technology-based climate policies in liberalized electricity markets: seeing beyond total system cost

Philippe Thalmann, Frank Vöhringer, Sophie Maire

This paper is a contribution to assessing the Swiss energy transition, with an emphasis on the consequences of decommissioning the nuclear power plants for the electricity market and the whole economy. We expect that increased renewable generation and dema ...

System Dynamics Simulation to Explore the Impact of Low European Electricity Prices on Swiss Generation Capacity Investments

Matthias Finger, Reinier Verhoog, Paul Adrianus Van Baal

European electricity markets are coping with low energy prices as a result of overinvestments in generation capacity, subsidies for renewables and the financial crisis of 2008. In this chapter we explore the implications of low electricity prices on the Sw ...

Étude géotechnique des ouvrages souterrains de l'extension de la centrale hydroélectrique de Lavey

The run-of-river hydro power plant of Lavey, situated in the Western part of Switzerland, is an important source of renewable energy for the city of Lausanne. With its annual production of roughly 400 GWh it covers approximately a third of its consumptions ...

Assessment of Power Swings in Hydropower Plants Through High-Order Modeling and Eigenanalysis

Christophe Nicolet, Basile Kawkabani, Pedro Camilo de Oliveira e Silva

POWER plants are subject to introduce disturbances in the power grid, resulting from interactions with the dynamical behavior of the energy source subsystem. In the case of hydropower plants when used to compensate for variations of power generation and co ...

Conceptual design of the DEMO neutral beam injectors: main developments and R&D achievements

Ivo Furno, Minh Quang Tran

The objectives of the nuclear fusion power plant DEMO, to be built after the ITER experimental reactor, are usually understood to lie somewhere between those of ITER and a 'first of a kind' commercial plant. Hence, in DEMO the issues related to efficiency ...
