Priority pricing in electricity supply: an application for Israel
Article Abstract:
An econometric line version model based on the Chao-Wilson priority pricing principle was used to determine the rational priority prices for electricity supply in Israel. By simulating the data on the distribution of outage losses among consumers and the distribution of load shortages, it was determined that top priority electric rate in Israel ranges from zero to 8 US cents per kilowatthour. The model also outlines a revenue-neutral priority tariff schedule that can be efficiently used to calculate outage and outage loss distributions in different times of the day.

Some initial evidence of Canadian responsiveness to time-of-use electricity rates: detailed daily and monthly analysis
Article Abstract:
Initial results of an experiment on Canadian responsiveness to residential time-of-use electricity rates by time-of-day and month-of-year are presented using a non-homothetic demand system. Aside from allowing the measuring of responsiveness in terms of peak and non-peak aggregates, the system allows load shape responsiveness at critical hours to be analyzed. Rate structures that can help level load during critical peak hours and months are also identified.

Empirical evidence of advances in scrubber technology
Article Abstract:
A model of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) costs was developed and tests were conducted to determine whether there have been advances in scrubber technology in the 25 years that it has been employed in power plants. Data were collected from the US Dept of Energy/Energy Information Agency Form EIA-767, Steam-Electric Plant Operation and Design Report. Results provide evidence that there has been no substantial progress that occurred in abatement technology.
