Stochastic Nodal Adequacy Platform (SNAP)Resource Adequacy
About SNAP
SNAP is a new approach to evaluating resource adequacy. Built on the ENELYTIX platform, SNAP is an electric system simulation tool designed for systems with a high penetration of intermittent and distributed generation resources. SNAP is based on the premise that the uncertainty in resource availability and demand characterize real-time utility operations - and will do so to an even greater extent in the near future. SNAP probabilistically measures operational uncertainty and economic risk, allowing system operators and asset owners to calculate individual, asset-specific contributions to overall system adequacy and produce a nodal (monetary) value of resource adequacy that could be folded into current market pricing structures.
SNAP was developed with funding from the Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) in partnership with the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO). |
