Since electricity
grids rarely follow state borders, regional or power pool
emission factors are likely to be more accurate than those calculated by state organizations.
System value is determined by a variety of
factors, including reduced fuel costs, reduced carbon dioxide and other pollutant
emissions costs, or higher costs of additional
grid infrastructure.
