Decision-making based on energy costs: Comparing levelized cost of energy and energy system costs
Some energy policies aim to increase the share of renewable energy in the most cost-effective way, but the challenge is how to assess the costs of integrating these technologies into an energy system. This article analyzes two cost estimation methods, the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) and the Energy System Analysis (ESA) methods.

The energy costs of wading in water [PDF]
ABSTRACT Studies measuring the energy costs of wading in water have been limited to higher walking speeds in straight lines, in deep water. However, much foraging in water, by both humans and other primates, is conducted in the shallows and at low speeds of locomotion that include elements of turning, as befits searching for cryptic or ...
