Oliver of the Georgia Tech School of Economics.  "Renewable Energy and Wholesale Electricity Price Variability" previews the basic microeconomic theory underlying a larger empirical study by Johnson and Oliver on the effects of renewable energy support policies on wholesale electricity prices. The authors use a simple supply-demand model of an electricity market to demonstrate why greater renewable penetration should reduce the variation in wholesale electricity prices, reducing risk for key market actors.
