Modeling a diversified energy mix of gas, hydrogen, and power provides a strategic hedge against supply disruptions and market volatility. 👉 PLEXOS, the energy analytics and decisions platform for all systems, has the ability to co-optimize the power, gas, and hydrogen systems together, providing a more accurate picture of capital investment requirements. 👂 Hear what our customers are saying about PLEXOS & its co-optimization modeling capabilities: 🗣️ “I think my favorite and foremost the most popular [feature] – it is the co-optimization of power and gas. So essentially, it’s the understanding of how the gas market could interfere and affect the power market…especially in the last year or so, we have the gas market and the spikes in the gas prices, and this really affected the power prices and essentially the demand and so on so forth.” – Konstantinos Bergeles, Energy Design & Regulation Specialist at DESFA 🗣️ “We’ve seen quite a lot of interest in the gas co-optimization. Having gas as an energy transition fuel makes a difference and being able to do that simultaneously with power is very useful. But also, in other assignments relevant to hydrogen or water desalination and a combination of the two.” – John Dimitropoulos, Director at Grant Thornton Greece 🗣️ “A thing we couldn’t do, for example, in our previous tools was to model gas constraints alongside with electricity constraints…we’re actually still depending on a lot of fossil fuel generation in our future cases, and it might be a different non-carbon emitting source in the future, but the gas constraints will remain. And PLEXOS allows us to model those fuel constraints…previously we were overstating how much generation we can get from those resources. And PLEXOS allows us to see the difference.” – Patrick Boughan, Supervisor, Economic Studies and Environmental Outlook at ISO New England Inc.

"We want to be the thing that greases the wheels of the decarbonization effort" 💻⚡🌱 - Dr. Glenn Drayton, Founder & Chief Scientist at Energy Exemplar At Energy Exemplar, we are dedicated to driving innovation and supporting the transition to a sustainable future. In this video, Glenn explains how enhanced modeling capabilities support decarbonization efforts across various energy systems, including electricity, gas, hydrogen, and emerging storage technologies. In Glenn's words: "If you've got better, more comprehensive modeling then you get this virtuous cycle of being able to correctly assess and value new technologies quickly. That leads to more innovation and, ultimately, a faster path to decarbonization." 💡 Interested in learning more about energy modeling, and how and why Glenn created PLEXOS, one of the world's leading energy modeling and simulation platforms?

⚡ Power demand is growing at unprecedented rates thanks to electrification and decarbonization. Unfortunately, meeting that demand isn't as simple as adding more generation resources to the grid. 🐌 Transmission infrastructure is struggling to keep up, and it's critical that new generation resources are able to deliver power to the loads requiring it. This is where transmission congestion analysis comes into play. Check out our latest blog to learn more about: 📍 What grid congestion is and why it occurs 📍 Why transmission congestion analysis is important 📍 Optimizing grid performance and reliability 📍 Developing and planning infrastructure 📍 Evaluating Demand Response programs 📍 Mitigating congestion risks with financial tools 📍 Accurately forecasting basis risk and curtailment 👉 How PLEXOS can help Read the blog here ➡️ https://bit.ly/45PLPEc #transmission #transmissioncongestion #congestionanalysis #basisrisk #PLEXOS

🌍 Achieving 100% clean energy in Africa hinges on strategic flexibility and reliable technologies. ☀️🍃Solar & wind are already the most cost-competitive power options, but ensuring a consistent supply requires flexible solutions. Marc Thiriet from Wärtsilä Energy points out that while many studies focus on zero-carbon dispatchable technologies, they often neglect balancing engine power plants, which are crucial for cost-effective and reliable grid balancing. These plants are adaptable to future clean fuels, ensuring long-term sustainability. Energy Exemplar's PLEXOS plays a vital role in this process, providing sophisticated modeling to determine the most efficient power mix for each country. By leveraging PLEXOS, African businesses and nations can build effective, resilient, and sustainable energy systems that support their development and climate goals. At Energy Exemplar, we're proud that PLEXOS is Empowering Transformative Energy Decisions.
