Abstract :
In the long-run marginal cost approach, all power system capacity costs are charged to peak-period users. This paper presents a simple “shared-cost” model as the basis for a fundamental discussion of capacity-cost allocation. Based on this analysis, the paper suggests that the long-run marginal cost approach might not be correct
