Contact We use hourly system results to identify how much generation, storage, network capacity and flexibility will be needed, where it is needed and when it should be built.
The planning question
We compare demand with the generation, storage, interconnection and flexibility available in each scenario. Shortages, curtailment, utilisation and flows show where the system needs more capacity or a different mix.
Demand, weather, technology costs and policy all change the answer. We report a range across scenarios and show which investments are needed in each case.
Experience
Our work follows hourly and annual system behaviour across countries and climate cases. We use shortages, curtailment, price spreads, utilisation and cross-border flows to identify whether the limiting factor is energy, capacity, flexibility or network access.
We connect model outputs to generation, storage, conversion, import and network needs across planning horizons. The sequence matters: a robust pathway shows what is required now, what remains conditional and which later choices depend on earlier infrastructure.
We assess capital and operating assumptions, asset revenues and system value where the question requires it. We also state what the calculation excludes, such as unmodelled revenue streams or simplified market treatment.
How we work
Define the reliability, policy or investment decision the plan must support.
Reconcile demand, existing assets, networks and committed projects.
Test weather, timing, cost and flexibility assumptions across credible cases.
Separate actions needed across all scenarios from choices that depend on later results.
