Electric System Reliability:
ERCOT22A.xlsx is the current ERCOT system using 2022 hourly data with CO2 sources producing 59% of the energy (7.3 c/kWh).
ERCOT22C.xlsx 30 GW nuclear long 200 hr thermal storage using 2021 Storm Uri has no CO2 from gas peaking and works with renewables (10.2 c/kWh).
ERCOT22C1.xlsx 30.5 GW nuclear long 200 hr thermal storage using 2022 Storm Elliott has no CO2 from gas peaking and works with renewables (10.1 c/kWh).
