Holdings: Optimal Transition from Coal to Gas and Renewable Power under Capacity Constraints and Adjustment Costs

Optimal Transition from Coal to Gas and Renewable Power under Capacity Constraints and Adjustment Costs

This paper studies the optimal transition from existing coal power plants to gas and renewable power under a carbon budget. It solves a model of polluting, exhaustible resources with capacity constraints and adjustment costs (to build coal, gas, an...
