Figure 7.21plots the average PVRR and risk exposure across the CO 2 adder cases. Figures 7.22 and 7.23show the cost-risk relationship for the $0 CO 2 adder case and the $61 CO 2 adder case, respectively.The figures indicate that RA14 has the best balance of cost and risk on an average basis acrossthe five CO 2 adder cases, as well as for adders greater than $0. Portfolio RA17 fares relativelypoorly, having both a higher cost and risk than the other portfolios.Figure 7.21 – Average Stochastic Cost versus Risk ExposureAverage Across All CO2 Adder CasesCO2 Cap and Trade BasisRisk Exposure: Upper-Tail Stochastic Meanminus Overall Mean PVRR (Billion $)54.0053.0052.0051.00RA17RA15RA14RA16RA1321.2 21.6 22.0 22.4 22.8 23.2Stochastic Mean PVRR (Billion $)191
