Supply Simulator

The supply simulator creates future generation, outage, derate, and offer scenarios from the same harmonized assumptions used by Demand Simulator.

Shared weather foundation

Modelling Supply and Demand using the Same Assumptions

Wind, solar, conventional generation, storage, imports/exports, cogeneration, and behind-the-fence supply use the same weather, climate, economic, growth, network, and scenario assumptions that drive demand.

Renewable fleet

Preserving Coincidental Output and Correlated Ramps

The simulator represents wind and solar availability and output across locations using spatially coherent weather scenarios, preserving fleet-wide coincidence, diversity, weather-linked derates and outages, and ramping behavior.

Conventional fleet

Representing Outages, Derates, and Offers

Conventional units are modeled with technical limits, outage history, forced and planned outage assumptions, weather-linked derates, marginal cost assumptions, and strategic or cost-based offer behavior.

Behind-the-fence supply

Connecting Distributed Generation to Local Net Load

Location-aware modelling of behind-the-fence solar and conventional distributed generation supports net-load studies and reverse power flow analysis in distribution systems.
