ELECTRICITY GENERATION COSTS ASSESSMENT MADE IN 1984 FOR STATIONS TO BE COMMISSIONED IN 1995 by G. MOYNET Electricité de France, Paris ABSTRACT This Report presents the main results of the work carried out in 1984 by the Group of Experts for the study of methods of calculating the costs of Electricity Generation (1) drawn from various electricity producers in the European Community. The aim of the work was to determine the cost of generating electricity from nuclear and coal-fired stations scheduled to be commissioned in the middle of the next decade. Representatives of the Directorate-General for Energy of the European Community also provided assistance. A dual objective was pursued: to evaluate the relative competitiveness of the two types of station in each of the countries represented so as to determine a general trend in the European context, and to establish a basis for comparing generating costs for stations of similar technology in the various countries. Such an objective is very ambitious, since it involves making projections about an uncertain future, particularly as regards the trend in fuel prices, and requires some harmonization of evaluation methods and main assumptions, while at the same time the specific nature of the estimates of each utility must be respected.
