    • Economic Feasibility of Power Plants

      Economic Feasibility Projects in the area of Energy Economics include detailed market analyses of the energy market - supply sources, demand sources, and deploying various technologies, including renewable energies (e.g., waste-to-energy and wind energy). 
       

      These feasibility studies are dependent on a variety of factors, apart from the supply and demand noted above, including the electricity price regime, regulation, available technology, governmental goals, and other factors as welland one of the more important ones is the electricity prices forecast. 


      Economikr’s comparative advantage is its experience in providing analysis on behalf of new private-sector entrants the entry of private players into the energy market, a field predominantly occupied by large natural monopolies. It has surveyed various developments in regulation in several markets, and has analyzed market changes in a constantly changing world, both in terms of supply of energy products, private financing, governmental guarantees, and other financial factors.

The following projects present evaluations of market structure both in the natural gas market – at the level of production and distribution, and the electricity market in its separate demand and supply sources.
