Abstract

Simulations clearly show that the choice of rate- or mass-based standards potentially creates significant differences in incentives regarding investments in natural gas and renewable generation, and therefore the preservation of coal generation. The modeling suggests these incentives could have significant effects on coal generation outcomes, and by implication coal production in the future.
