The Decarbonized Electrification Pathway: Output-Based Pricing in Canada’s Electricity Sector
In this paper (here) sponsored by the Canadian Council on Renewable Energy, Noel and I look at output-based pricing scenarios for Canada’s electricity sector using an integrated model of Canada’s electricity sector. With significant GHG and energy policy already in place, emissions from Canada’s electricity sector are falling rapidly. Output-based pricing (OBP) applied nationally could reinforce this trend. We simulate three output-based pricing benchmarks to scale the federa
