Abstract |
This toolkit presents the whole-system impacts of electricity generation technologies. It is designed to help show the underlying assumptions driving differences in the whole system impact calculated from a dispatch and investment model. Users can examine the effect of amending some inputs on the whole system impact (although due to interdependency of the system, sensitivities such as changing variable costs will be a re-run of the underlying dispatch/investment model). The toolkit is set up to easily accept input from EnVision/DDM, but could (with appropriate transformation of outputs) be used with another dispatch and investment model. |
