Abstract
A set of microeconomic assumptions are presented that lead to a model of the technology choices made by producers of a homogenous energy product. Under these assumptions it is possible to model the technology selection decision as being made solely to minimize product cost. Since the cost of producing energy using a particular technology will be different for different producers, a number of technologies will be adopted in the market rather than a single, “least-cost” technology.
