Cost of Energy Generation: Second Symposium on Power Costs: Combined Energy Generation
Publication: Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume 104, Issue 1
Abstract
No attempt will be made in this paper to consider anything but the cost of combined steam and hydro-electric generation although the same principles must be followed in determining the cost of any other combination. The cost of combined energy generation will vary with every combination, and it is not possible to determine such cost for one combination and apply it to another, although the method of determining such cost may be the same in each case . This paper, therefore, will discuss principally the methods that must be followed in determining the cost of combined energy generation and the variable factors that affect such cost.
