El Centro ITAM de Energía y Recursos Naturales, los invita al seminario del Dr. Daniel Shawhan de Resources for the Future.

We have developed new power system simulation software known as the Engineering, Economic, and Environmental Electricity Simulation Tool (the “E4 Simulation Tool” or “E4ST”—pronounced “east”—for short).  It is designed to do unusually realistic, detailed simulations of how power systems operate and evolve, and how their operation and costs would respond to different transmission investments, generation investments, natural gas supply investments, policies, input prices, demand patterns, and so on.

The Mexico E4ST model will be usable on a standalone basis.  It will also be usable in combination with the Texas and WECC models, so that cross-border power and natural gas flows can be endogenously determined.
