Use CONE Method

Checking this box  for a long-term run will incorporate the specification of a CONE (Cost of New Entrant) unit in the capacity pricing logic.

This option shows improved stability as well as creates a more robust cross-technology selection of new entrants, improving the build-out mix of new resources for complex systems. When using this method the capacity pricing logic is performed every iteration, providing contemporary pricing for build-out decisions.

NOTE: Selecting this method will automatically select Use current year value.

See the Knowledge Base article Long-Term Studies Using Reserve Margins for more information.
