Simulation
|
|
|
The ETM is based on an energy graph where nodes can convert one type of energy into another.
|
| Variables
|
300
|
| Computation time
|
0.0083333 minutes (From input to output, including communication with the server the calculation takes less than a second (except with very slow internet connections).)
|
| Objective
|
Given demand and other choices, calculate primary energy use, costs, CO2-emission etc.
|
| Uncertainty modeling
|
The user can assess the impact of almost every input variable and assumption
|
| Suited for many scenarios / monte-carlo
|
Yes
|

Example research questions
What would happen (to reliability, CO2, cost) if we close all non-profitable power plants?
Which combinations of options can we use to reach a certain goal (in sustainability, cost, import dependence etc.)?
