The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is a metric that attempts to compare the costs of different methods of electricity generation consistently. Though LCOE is often presented as the minimum constant price at which electricity must be sold to break even over the lifetime of the project, such a cost analysis requires assumptions about the value of various non-financial costs (environmental ...
Electricity generation is the fourth highest combined source of NO x, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter in the US. [21] According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), low-carbon electricity generation needs to account for 85% of global electrical output by 2040 in order to ward off the worst effects of climate change.

Most electric power plants use some of the electricity they produce to operate the power plant. Net generation excludes the electricity used for the operation of the power plant. Capacity—the maximum level of electric power (electricity) that a power plant can supply at a specific point in time under certain conditions. [1]
