Abstract

The levelized cost of electricity is estimated for more than 70 electricity production technologies and for two facility ownership sectors. The analysis uses a Lotus 1–2‐3 spreadsheet for a consistent approach. The cost effectiveness of several alternative technologies is compared with that of conventional technologies. A variety of owners could build and operate facilities made from these conventional and alternative technologies.
