The impact of extended decision times in planning and regulatory processes for energy infrastructure
Effective planning and regulatory processes ensure orderly energy systems. Often, decisions are not made within mandated timeframes and discrete approval processes are infrequent. A given delay may be compounded where multiple approval processes exist in sequence. These factors can negatively affect system costs and, ultimately, consumer welfare. We show that delays have meaningful impacts on electricity prices, system emissions, infrastructure investment and system operating costs. Our numerical simulation of data from Ireland shows that wholesale electricity prices are up to 10% higher and CO2 emissions up to 4% higher, attributable to delays associated with planning and regulatory approvals.
期刊介绍：
Utilities Policy is deliberately international, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral. Articles address utility trends and issues in both developed and developing economies. Authors and reviewers come from various disciplines, including economics, political science, sociology, law, finance, accounting, management, and engineering. Areas of focus include the utility and network industries providing essential electricity, natural gas, water and wastewater, solid waste, communications, broadband, postal, and public transportation services.
Utilities Policy invites submissions that apply various quantitative and qualitative methods. Contributions are welcome from both established and emerging scholars as well as accomplished practitioners. Interdisciplinary, comparative, and applied works are encouraged. Submissions to the journal should have a clear focus on governance, performance, and/or analysis of public utilities with an aim toward informing the policymaking process and providing recommendations as appropriate. Relevant topics and issues include but are not limited to industry structures and ownership, market design and dynamics, economic development, resource planning, system modeling, accounting and finance, infrastructure investment, supply and demand efficiency, strategic management and productivity, network operations and integration, supply chains, adaptation and flexibility, service-quality standards, benchmarking and metrics, benefit-cost analysis, behavior and incentives, pricing and demand response, economic and environmental regulation, regulatory performance and impact, restructuring and deregulation, and policy institutions.
