Capacity Remuneration Mechanisms (CRMs) can be introduced in power markets to address market failures and ensure security of supply. However, investment in capacity is a dynamic process that depends on the evolution of prices and costs over time. In this paper, we investigate the value of capacity under a CRM using a stochastic approach. We focus on three possible technologies participating in the market: a Variable Renewable Energy source, a thermal efficient power plant (such as a Combined Cycle one) and a coal-fired power plant. These three types of capacities can be framed within a common theoretical framework with an increasing level of complexity.
