Consumer-Centric Electricity System Planning
- Wheeling services to buy/sell from neighbors, including coordination and system security services.
- Less large scale, centralized resources, as higher cost due to amount if infrastructure required, and the economies of manufacturing scale afforded to consumer resources.
- Less higher voltage conductors are most energy is traded close to its source to minimize costs.

Agent Based Simulation 101
- Range of choices, which become complex and cumbersome to manage individually
- Ability to integrate with other methods, e.g. regression or probit, for uptake parameterization
- Path dependency, future behavior is a function of historical behavior, e.g. PV adoption
- Factor and consumer inter-dependency, consumers can sell to other consumers
- Traceability / auditability of outcomes from inputs and functions
Truly Integrated, Consumer-Centric System Planning
The figure illustrates conceptually the difference between an IRP and a true[1] ISP in terms of how different elements of the electricity interact dynamically. For an IRP, you can see the generation and transmission elements interacting. A true ISP integrates each of the systems, modeling their interactions, and feedback loops.
For more detailed information regarding the key challenges of analysing and optimising a truly integrated system plan, best practice methods, and insight into their implementation and implications, please see Energeia’s webinar and associated materials.
