Optimisation & forecasting · Hitachi Energy

Independent PROMOD consultants.

Expertise in PROMOD, Hitachi Energy's nodal production cost and transmission analysis tool, for congestion, locational price and network-aware planning studies.

Overview

Getting more from PROMOD.

Where transmission constraints shape prices and dispatch, nodal production cost modelling is essential. PROMOD is widely used for these studies, from locational price forecasting to congestion and curtailment analysis.

We help you build and calibrate PROMOD studies, interpret results for commercial decisions and connect them to your wider modelling and trading processes.

FAQs

PROMOD: common questions.

When do we need nodal modelling?

When network constraints materially affect prices, dispatch or curtailment at your assets, zonal models can miss important risk. Nodal tools such as PROMOD capture these effects.

Can you combine PROMOD results with other models?

Yes. We frequently combine nodal insight with zonal or system-wide forecasts to give a consistent view for trading and investment decisions.
