Anchor Power Solutions Releases EnCompass Version 6.2
Anchor Power Solutions is pleased to announce the release of EnCompass Version 6.2, extending the capabilities of the leading model for resource planning, production costing, market price forecasting, stochastic analysis, and transmission modeling. This release includes several new modeling constraints including annual and weekly limits for transmission flows, unit starts, and hours online. Time-varying dependency can be set for batteries so that charging does not always have to be 100% from the dependent resources and can go to 0% after five years to earn the full value of investment tax credits. A new interactive report shows the number of active projects with years as columns and indicates where project constraints prevented further additions. The Fuels input screen has a delivered costs interactive report that will show those values prior to making a simulation. For the nodal version, a new tool to convert PSS/E RAW files into EnCompass input spreadsheets is now included.
This release follows closely on the release of Version 6.1 four months ago, which included the introduction of user-defined time periods (on-peak, weeknight, weekend, etc.) for data entry and reporting, in addition to numerous new features in the categories of modeling, user interface, reporting, client/server, data management, and scripting. Anchor Power Solutions is committed to constantly updating and improving the EnCompass software as the North American power markets continue the transition to clean energy sources.
The EnCompass software product is the industry leader in representing North American power markets and offers the ability to easily and thoroughly analyze changing market structures, zonal or nodal powerflow transmission representations, environmental compliance programs, price forecasting and resource planning applications.
