EnergyPLAN, Bulgaria

The EnergyPLAN model  is  an  input/output computer model  for  Energy  Systems  Analysis.  It simulates the operation of national energy systems on an hourly basis, including the electricity, heating, cooling, industry and transport sectors. The main purpose is to assist the design of national energy planning strategies on the basis of technical and economic analyses. General inputs are demands, RES, energy plant capacities, costs and a optional different regulation strategies emphasizing import/export and excess  electricity  production.
