| dc.description.abstract |
Application of the MIT Emissions Prediction and Policy Analysis (EPPA) model to assessment of the future
of coal under climate policy revealed the need for an improved representation of load dispatch in the
representation of the electric sector. A new dispatching algorithm is described and the revised model is
applied to an analysis of the future of coal use to 2050 and 2100 under alternative assumptions about CO2
prices, nuclear expansion and prices of natural gas. Particular attention is devoted to the potential role of
coal-electric generation with CO2 capture and storage. An appendix provides a comparison of a subset of
these results with and without the more detailed model of electric dispatch. |
