Optimized Decision Support for Portfolio Energy Investment

Abstract

ESAT (Energy Security Assessment Tool) is an innovative decision support technology which rapidly selects optimal energy project portfolios, cost effectively meets multiple energy goals, and assists with navigating multiple policies and mandates. It enables a decision maker to effectively explore the solution space of alternative portfolios, and easily and transparently incorporate evolving preferences. ESAT represents an integration of a Constraint Management System with a state-of-the-art visualization and analytics framework.This analytic environment successfully evaluates all project types of interest: energy efficiency, renewable energy, water conservation, and energy resilience. This approach simultaneously considers key financial and domain metrics, for example, Net Present Value (NPV), Savings to Investment Ratio (SIR), energy and water savings, and renewable energy generation.
