Prices vs. percentages: Use of tradable green certificates as an instrument of greenhouse gas mitigation

Arild Heimvik et al.

Summary: This study examines the applicability and results of a Tradable Green Certificate (TGC) scheme in achieving specific greenhouse gas emission reduction targets in the electricity sector using a dynamic model. The research finds that while the TGC scheme can achieve specific dynamic emission targets, it may result in overinvestment in new green generation capacity.

The effects of carbon emissions trading and renewable portfolio standards on the integrated wind-photovoltaic-thermal power-dispatching system: Real case studies in China

Qinliang Tan et al.

Summary: The study shows that the impact of carbon emissions trading and renewable portfolio standards on the multi-energy combined power-dispatching system varies: the former is more conducive to emission reduction, while the latter is more suitable for energy saving. The renewable portfolio standards have a constant effect on the penetration rate of renewable power, providing insight for the design optimization of these two policies in China.

The interplay between renewable portfolio standards and voluntary green power markets in the United States

Shan Zhou et al.

Summary: Voluntary green power programs, allowing energy consumers to pay a premium for electricity from renewable sources, have gained momentum worldwide. Research shows that increasing state renewable portfolio standards can negatively impact voluntary green power markets, leading to reduced customer enrollment and sales.

Provincial allocation of renewable portfolio standard in China based on efficiency and fairness principles

Jie Xu et al.

Summary: This study establishes two quota allocation models for renewable energy targets, LC-RPS and IN-RPS, and compares them with the GM-RPS and the NO-RPS scenarios. Results show that LC-RPS has lower power generation cost but slightly lower fairness compared to the other three scenarios, still demonstrating relative fairness in power generation cost.

Impact of market design on cost-effectiveness of renewable portfolio standards

Soheil Shayegh et al.

Summary: A Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) is a policy instrument aimed at increasing the production of clean energy technologies by mandating a minimum market share, with its cost-effectiveness depending on the market structure and level of competition. Research shows that deregulated markets minimize subsidy requirements for clean energy technologies with lower penetration rates, while regulated markets do so for higher market share mandates. Identifying a critical market share can help policymakers design more cost-effective RPS mandates in both regulated and deregulated markets.

Will China achieve its renewable portfolio standard targets? An analysis from the perspective of supply and demand

Jing-Li Fan et al.

Summary: 1. If all provinces can implement their respective renewable energy planning, the renewable power supply will exceed the renewable portfolio standard targets by about 488 TWh. 2. Guangdong, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Chongqing will experience the greatest lack of renewable electricity, with a shortfall of 320 TWh, representing 77% of the total renewable portfolio standard target. 3. The greatest shortfall of non-hydro power will occur in Beijing, Jiangsu, Tianjin and Zhejiang, accounting for approximately 69% of the total non-hydro power shortfall. 4. China's renewable portfolio standard policy will further promote the optimal allocation of renewable energy resources among provinces through inter-provincial transactions.

Induction mechanism and optimization of tradable green certificates and carbon emission trading acting on electricity market in China

Tian-tian Feng et al.

Summary: China has set emission reduction targets for 2030 and 2060, and implemented CET and TGC to achieve these goals. Through simulation and policy synergy modeling, it was found that TGC and CET systems can optimize power supply structure and slow down the growth rate of CO2 emissions.
