Abstract
Control areas around the world use a variety of methods to ensure that resources added to meet future electricity loads create an adequate supply. This work describes a particular method for determining adequacy based on economic costs and benefits that applies equally well to dispatchable and nondispatchable resources. Analysis of the Northwest power supply indicates that energy efficiency and demand response may be the most cost-effective capacity resources for achieving an economic adequacy standard.
