Pre-FERC-2222 electrical utilities absorb the majority share of the final value of electricity. Utilities normally purchase from suppliers on the real-time market, but pre-FERC-2222 could purchase directly from DERs at sub-market (avoided cost) prices. Notably, this did create incentives for utilities to work with DERs, but creates no incentive for DERs to produce electricity (the offered price fails to cover the costs of generation). The avoided cost price policy in the pre-2222 market is a noncompetitive practice; utility prices offered to DERs systems undercut market prices . Due to the nature of these pre-2222 policies, dairy farmers were unable to respond to incentives in electricity markets, and had little incentive to produce electricity. Under FERC-2222 and new aggregation policies allowing DERs to enter electricity markets, these economic barriers are removed, MP DERs have access to real-time markets, and have no incentive to operate in the avoided cost dynamic. The SCM provides insights on potential product prices, revenues, and profits generated by the bioeconomy activated by FERC-2222. In our post-FERC-2222 cases (documented in Table ) we observe that the bioeconomy can lead to manure prices that are directly coupled to electricity prices (manure becomes a valuable resource). In our 174.83 USD/MWh case, manure prices across the state varied between 0.00 and 0.25 USD/tonne. Since we assume manure is offered by farmers for free, any positive price is the result of the value of the electricity that can be produced from it. By contrast, under a real-time electricity price of 363.71 USD/MWh the value of manure can reach up to 15.28 USD/tonne. Conversely, at any electricity price below 171.69 USD/MWh, MP systems do not participate in electricity markets, and manure prices are uniformly zero across the state (providing no value). These positive manure prices indicate that dairy farmers would generate revenue in the bieconomy. For example, In the 174.83 USD/MWh case, individual farms earned an average annual profit of 4,350 USD (with a maximum of 22,456 USD) demonstrating that FERC-2222 creates value.
