The browser-based platform provides electricity market simulations as a service via graphical user interfaces. Runs can be carried out immediately with calibrated input data for Europe-wide, yearly, historical and future scenarios.
Users get support by processing tool kits, data quality checks and geographical visualizations. Unit commitment and market price results are prepared for applications as social welfare analysis or power-flow simulations.
Based on C++. Using Kubernetes, Ceph, MinIO, MongoDB, Preact, Node.js, GraphQL, Python, WebAssembly, GCC, cURL, OpenMPI for data processing.
