while its minimal value is zero, meaning that there is no change of
this indicator under this condition. It is of interest to recognize that the
Electricity Cost is the representation of the economic value of the system.
There is the possibility to use as the economic indicator the agglomerated
combination of the different economic indicators: Investment Cost, Energy
Demand and Energy Resources. In order to facilitate the simplicity of this
analysis it is anticipated to use the single indicator Electricity Cost.

emissions, is the sum of the CO

emissions per unit of electricity
produced expressed in kg/MWh [14] and this is used as the Environmental
Indicator Change. In the assessment of the potential changes of this indicator,
it is anticipated that the maximum value of this indicator is 400 gr/kWh while
its minimum value is zero. In defining the value of this indicator for the other
