Accounting for fuel price risk when comparing renewable togas-fired generation: the role of forward natural gas prices

Description: Unlike natural gas-fired generation, renewable generation (e.g., from wind, solar, and geothermal power) is largely immune to fuel price risk. If ratepayers are rational and value long-term price stability, then--contrary to common practice--any comparison of the levelized cost of renewable to gas-fired generation should be based on a hedged gas price input, rather than an uncertain gas price forecast. This paper compares natural gas prices that can be locked in through futures, swaps, and phys… more

An Automated Inadvertent Intruder Analysis Application

Description: Savannah River National Laboratory is responsible for the radiological performance assessment analysis for Savannah River Site waste disposal facilities (McDowell-Boyer2000), which results in limits on the amounts of radiological substances that can be placed in the waste disposal facilities. To arrive at these limits, the performance assessment considers numerous potential exposure pathways that could occur in the future. One set of exposure scenarios, known as inadvertent intruder analysis, c… more

The Design and Implementation of hypre, a Library of Parallel High Performance Preconditioners

Description: The increasing demands of computationally challenging applications and the advance of larger more powerful computers with more complicated architectures have necessitated the development of new solvers and preconditioners. Since the implementation of these methods is quite complex, the use of high performance libraries with the newest efficient solvers and preconditioners becomes more important for promulgating their use into applications with relative ease. The hypre library [14, 17] has been … more
