JISC has released Going for Gold? The Costs and Benefits of Gold Open Access for UK Research Institutions: Further Economic Modelling.
Here's an excerpt:
Based on this analysis, the main findings are:
- so long as research funders commit to paying publication costs for the research they fund, and
- publication charges fall to the reprint author's home institution,
- all research-intensive universities would see the greatest savings, and universities would see savings from (worldwide) Gold OA when article-processing charges are at the current averages,
- in a transition period, providing Open Access through the Green route offers the greatest economic benefits to individual universities, unless additional funds are made available to cover Gold OA costs
