Resource Adequacy benefits

1
Conduct probabilistic power and reliability assessments of generation capacity adequacy, such as NERC PROB-A, to help ensure system reliability and mitigate potential risks.
2
Established best practices for modeling renewable generation. Resource Adequacy supports unlimited years of renewable generation data while preserving correlation to load.
3
Perform calculations such as equivalent load carrying capacity to better meet resource adequacy demands.
4
Assess reliability of power supply in meeting energy demand.
5
Determine the need for implementing emergency operating procedures down to hours/year to help avoid system failures.

PlanOS' functions

Revolutionize your system planning experience with GE Vernova

The PlanOS platform brings together GE Vernova’s decades of proven planning software tools (Production Cost, formerly MAPS*; Resource Adequacy, formerly MARS*; Power Flow, formerly PSLF*) and newly added Capacity Expansion into one powerful interface. PlanOS utilizes one shared dataset to seamlessly transition between analyses, like production cost, resource adequacy, and power flow, without the need for third-party add-ons.

This coordinated and holistic approach to analyzing a power system helps you break down traditional grid modeling silos and help you with your Integrated System Planning analysis.
