New technologies, requirements, and demands in electricity are changing the world. A better planning solution is needed.
Plan for an Integrated Energy Future
Plan the integration and coordination of energy systems, including electricity, gas, and thermal networks.
The challenges the industry is facing
Energy networks are interdependent
The integration of coupled energy networks must be coordinated. Iteration between planning tools creates reliable scenarios and accurate results.
Operational and strategic planning should be coordinated
Strategic planning without consideration of operational realities increases costs and risks. Operational planning without strategic guidance slows growth.
Siloed planning processes and teams
Siloed modeling tools and datasets slow planning processes and increase risk.
Time and cost
Multiple planning platforms and data sources increase cost and time while reducing trust in the decision process.
New technologies bridge between electric and gas systems
Renewables, storage, hydrogen, DER, CHP, electrification, and more need to be planned in coordination to accelerate adoption and ensure the best fit.

Gas
The future of gas is uncertain and effective planning will be necessary to understand and enhance the role of gas infrastructure in the energy transition.
Hydrogen Integration
Alternative fuels cause their own mix of challenges. How do you plan for greener fuels?
Renewable and Storage Integration
Renewable generation and storage technologies can cause as many problems as they solve. Careful scenario planning is required to quantify and minimize risk.
Thermal Networks
Heating and cooling demands are large and represent potential sources of flexibility. How do you plan the future of thermal networks?
