Abstract:

Transition to zero-carbon energy infrastructure entails collaborative decision-making between utilities, policymakers, and stakeholders with conflicting objectives. In this talk, I develop a framework and a tool that can make it easier for communities to create clean-energy plans that incorporate their community values and identify preferred least-regrets spatial patterns of clean-energy infrastructure deployment. I will use a case study that uses linear programming based on spatially, temporally, and operationally resolved power system capacity expansion model (CEM) to evaluate technology tradeoffs in New York State.
