Cost-Benefit Analysis Factors |
|
| |
Our approach involves accounting for the full costs and benefits of each measure. A partial list of the factors receiving explicit consideration in our analyses includes: |
|
| |
|
|
| |
- The avoided costs for electric energy and capacity
- Non-electric energy savings
- Transmission and distribution losses
- Environmental externalities
- Non-energy benefits
- Market saturations of efficient and baseline technologies
- Changes in costs and savings over time
- Long-term market effects
- Spillover
- Free-ridership
- Deferred investments
- Annual operations, maintenance, and program delivery and implementation costs
