Butler Philbrick Gordillo and Associates» argue in Valuation Based Equity Market Forecasts — Q1 2013 Update that «there is substantial value in applying simple statistical models to discover average estimates of what the future may hold over meaningful investment horizons (10 + years), while acknowledging the wide range of possibilities that exist around these averages.»
Only one of the parties involved has (1) had their claims fail scientific peer - review, (2) produced a reconstruction that is completely at odds with all other existing estimates (note that there is no sign of the anomalous 15th century warmth claimed by MM in any of the roughly dozen other model and proxy - based estimates shown here), and (3) been established to have made egregious elementary errors in other published work that render the work thoroughly invalid.
Each spreadsheet lists the model estimates of capacity additions (what electric generating capacity the model and what the states tell the model to include because of regulations); generation (how much the existing and projected units will produce); prices (including firm power prices, energy prices, capacity prices, allowance prices, natural gas prices, and renewable energy credit prices); total CO2 emissions; fuel consumption for different fuel types; and transmission flows into and out of the RGGI power grids.
