Renewable Energy Study Released
BEIJING -
Data detailed on Energy - Renewable Energy have been presented. According to news originating from Guangdong, People's Republic of China, by VerticalNews correspondents, research stated, "On the basis of the government subsidies for renewable energy electricity, this study builds a two-stage duopoly model in an industry with a renewable electricity enterprise and a conventional electricity enterprise in the market. Under the assumption of the generalised social welfare maximisation authority, this study discusses the effects of three types of government subsidies, business fixed input subsidy, output subsidy and mixed subsidy."
Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the University of Jinan, "First, the mixed subsidy policy is the best one under generalised social welfare. However, when the cost of renewable energy production or the energy negative coefficient is low, this subsidy policy generates a high electricity price. Second, when the output subsidy is used, the optimal price and optimal output of renewable energy will decrease with the increase of production cost and negative externality coefficient of renewable energy enterprises."
According to the news editors, the research concluded: "Finally, both the optimal price and optimal outputs depend on the level of negative externality and the cost of renewable energy production."

Are solar and wind really killing coal, nuclear and grid reliability?
WASHINGTON - U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry in April requested a study to assess the effect of renewable energy policies on nuclear and coal-fired power plants.
Some energy analysts responded with confusion as the subject has been extensively studied by grid operators and the Department of Energy’s own national labs. Others were more critical, saying the intent of the review is to favor the use of nuclear and coal over renewable energy sources.
So, are wind and solar killing coal and nuclear? Yes, but not by themselves and not for the reasons most people think. Are wind and solar killing grid reliability? No,…
