Abstract
⺠We estimate the implicit cost of outages for the main distribution company in France. ⺠For this purpose, we make use of a parametric distance function approach. ⺠Marginal quality improvements tend to be more expensive as quality itself improves. ⺠The cost of preventing one interruption varies from 1.8 ⬠to 69.2 ⬠(2005 prices). ⺠We estimate that, in average, it lays 33% above the regulated price of quality.
