AI summary The text discusses Effective Load Carrying Capability (ELCC), a method used in Nova Scotia to quantify the capacity contribution of energy-limited resources. ELCC is expressed as a percentage of a resource's installed capacity and declines with increased penetration of such resources. Energy+Environmental Economics (E3) conducted ELCC studies in 2019 and 2026 as part of the Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) process.
