Emission Shadow Price

Units:$/kg (Metric), $/lb (U.S. Imperial)
Mode:Input/Output
Multi-band:False
Default Value:0
Validation Rule:Any Value
Key Property:No
Description:Shadow price (marginal cost) of emissions

Emission Shadow Price as an input is the incremental cost of the Emission that appears in the simulation objective function as a pseudo-cost.

As an output it is the dual variable value associated with the emission production definition constraint. As such it represents the marginal cost to the system of the last/next unit of Emission Production. This price will reflect both input Shadow Price and/or the price of any binding Emission constraints e.g. defined using Max Production.
