X-Power is Calypso’s power-market modelling project. It focuses on how generation assets meet demand under operating and cost constraints. Discuss the assets, markets and planning decisions you need to model with our team.
01
Generation assets
Specify output limits, efficiency and operating availability.
02
Market assumptions
Define prices, demand and the planning horizon.
03
Operating constraints
Agree start-up, ramping and minimum running requirements.
04
Scenario comparison
Define the changes and results the analysis should compare.
Model scope
ASSETS, CONSTRAINTS AND SCENARIOS
Agree the generation assets, market assumptions and operating decisions that the model needs to represent.
WHAT IT DOES
Represent generation assets
Specify the output limits and operating characteristics needed for the model.
Model commitment and dispatch
Describe when units can run and how much electricity they can generate.
Include fuel and carbon costs
Assess how these cost assumptions affect the economics of generation.
Compare market scenarios
Explore the effect of different demand, price and availability assumptions.
Define the operating constraints
Agree the ramping, reserve and other restrictions required for your use case.
INSIDE X-POWER
Agree the required model and outputs with the Calypso team.
HOW IT WORKS
01 · WHAT YOU PROVIDE
↓ Asset specifications
↓ demand and price assumptions
↓ fuel and carbon costs
↓ agreed operating constraints
02 · THE PROCESS
Define the generation model, required constraints and scenarios with the Calypso team.
03 · WHAT YOU RECEIVE
→ A model specification and scenario analysis scoped to the assets and decisions being assessed
DEFINE THE ASSETS
Specify the generation assets and operating decisions you want to model.
AGREE THE SCOPE
Review the required constraints, market data and scenario outputs with our team.
PLAN THE PROJECT
Agree the development work, validation and delivery timetable.
PART OF OPTIMISE
Plan cargo deliveries, fleet operations and energy supply using the relevant contracts, assets and constraints.
