Power grid — peak avoidance & renewables absorption
The Problem
As renewables crossed 30% of generation, hourly volatility jumped sharply. Deciding which resources (pumped hydro, demand response, reserves) to dispatch at peak hours required a cross-variable simulation across weather, demand, and renewable output — and no such tool existed.
XimTier Approach
Demand, generation, weather, and renewable output are regressed at hourly granularity. Set a peak-avoidance target and Reverse What-If outputs the optimal dispatch mix of available resources, with SHAP-based justification auto-attached to every energy-trading decision.
Outcomes
Peak-load avoidance +24%
Auto-generated renewables-absorption scenarios
SHAP rationale auto-attached to trading decisions
Operating cost −7.8% via reserve optimization
