Integrated Energy Scenario Management for Optimal Decision Support


Date: 29th July 2010
Time: 10:00 EST, 15:00 BST
Duration: 60 Minutes

Description: Energy Risk magazine in association with OpenLink is pleased to present a webinar designed for Energy Professionals at trading and supply organizations looking to understand the impact of portfolio flexibility and the available decision support solutions. Featuring insights from a leading Market Analyst and an Executive Industry Expert in the energy business area, Integrated Energy Scenario Management for Optimal Decision Support explores opportunities to improve profitability with a similar risk profile through better decision making.

Overview: One of the most important challenges in the energy business is the optimal management of complex energy portfolios - making decisions under uncertainty. Current challenges Energy Professionals face include:

  • Choosing between alternative trading decisions (Exchange, OTC, optionality, etc.)
  • Taking advantage of contracted delivery, flexibility, or alternative pricing;
  • Determining the optimal type and use of transport and the most cost effective routing
  • Making 'burn or sell' decisions for fuels
  • Optimizing storages usage;
  • Committing & dispatching generation units;
  • Considering physical and regulatory constraints

In a complex portfolio with flexible cross commodity positions, transmission capacities, storage and generation assets, and trading alternatives, the decision maker has to take into account all interrelations between the portfolio assets as well as the coherence of the supply-demand solution.

A lot of these decisions have to be made in a situation where many input factors are still uncertain. For an optimal decision making process it is important to have all related information available and to be able to analyze the necessary variety of scenarios and their business impacts on profit and risk.
