course of the modeling. The PLEXOS modeling can proceed without having a firm estimate for these costs; the envelope of quantity reductions is the key input assumption. As noted, the mid DSM scenario includes ramping up the current energy...
AI summary The analysis explores mid and high DSM scenarios, emphasizing energy efficiency and demand response impacts on peak load reduction. Capital cost assumptions, wind capacity contributions, and sensitivity analyses are discussed to evaluate thermal unit retention economics and capacity expansion paths.
