404 Int. J. Critical Infrastructures, Vol. 1, No. 4, 2005 Identifying potential repositories for radioactive waste: multiple criteria decision analysis and critical infrastructure systems
Chen, Yihsu, Liu, Andrew L., Hobbs, Benjamin F.
In response to Assembly Bill 32, the State of California is considering three types of carbon emissions trading programs for the electric power sector: load-based, source-based, and first-seller....
Schulkin, Jinye Z., Hobbs, Benjamin F., Pang, Jong-Shi
A question in the design of carbon dioxide trading systems is how allowances are to be initially allocated: by auction, by giving away fixed amounts, or by allocating based on output, fuel, or other...

Strategic Gaming Analysis for Electric Power Systems: An MPEC Approach (2000)
Benjamin F. Hobbs, M. Ieee, Carolyn B. Metzler, Jong-shi Pang
Transmission constraints and market concentration may prevent power markets from being fully competitive, allowing rms to exercise market power and raise prices above marginal cost. We present a...
Markets, Distribution, and Exchange after Societal Cataclysm. (1998)
Chester, C. V., Hobbs, Benjamin F., Perry, Alfred M.
The report identifies constraints and opportunities for the restoration of economic exchange following nuclear war. Four survival scenarios are postulated based on high or low levels of damage to (1)...

Efficient market-clearing prices in markets with nonconvexities
O'Neill, Richard P., Sotkiewicz, Paul M., Hobbs, Benjamin F., Rothkopf, Michael H., Stewart, William R.
Lise, Wietze, Hobbs, Benjamin F., Van Oostvoorn, Frits
Growth in gas demand poses a challenge for European energy consumers and other gas-importing countries in terms of an increasing dependency on gas imports and consequently also supply security. This...

Tradable emissions allowance systems to reduce carbon emissions are increasingly promoted as means to mitigate climate change. This paper briefly reviews the application of such systems at the...
Lise, Wietze, Hobbs, Benjamin F., Hers, Sebastiaan
This paper uses a static computational game theoretic model of a fully opened European electricity market and can take strategic interaction among electricity-producing firms into account. The model...
A Dynamic Simulation of Market Power in the Liberalised European Natural Gas Market
Wietze Lise, Benjamin F. Hobbs
Recent increases in the world price of oil have led to higher gas prices in Europe, possibly leading to greater opportunities for exercising market power. The effect of different gas producer...
What measure of economic efficiency is appropriate for evaluating demand-side management (DSM) programs sponsored by electric utilities? Most regulatory commissions in the United States require that...
Trading in the Downstream European Gas Market: A Successive Oligopoly Approach
Maroeska G. Boots, Benjamin F. Hobbs
A model of successive oligopoly is applied to the European natural gas market. The model has a two-level structure, in which Cournot producers are also Stackelberg leaders with respect to traders,...
Benjamin F. Hobbs, Maroeska G. Boots
If barriers between two power markets are eliminated, what might happen to competition and prices? And who benefits? In the case of the Belgian and Dutch markets, market coupling would permit more...
