Disseration Description: Investment and the Transfer of Power: Dynamic Effects of Transmission in Electricity Markets

Renewable Energy and Transmission Challenges:

• Renewable resources are essential for the energy transition, but availability varies across locations.
• Additional transmission infrastructure can transfer renewable power from resource-rich to resource-poor areas.

Research Focus:

• Examines the impacts of increased long-distance electricity transfer on investment decisions by fossil fuel and renewable generators.

Dynamic Model Development:

• Models short-term operations in the dispatch market, accounting for line losses and transmission constraints between zones.
• Develops a long-term dynamic game for generator behavior in the capacity market.

Dataset:

• US grid buildout since 2000 for Eastern Interconnection and ERCOT
• Approximated hourly generation and exports by generator from 2018 to 2023

Counterfactual Experiments:

• Analyzes impacts on consumer welfare, emissions, and grid reliability.
• Evaluates incentives for renewable energy investment under varying transmission scenarios.
