Margin Analyzer
Integ’s Margin Analyzer examines the relationship between actual margin and lost margin due to outages and derates. By examining the heat curves, the incremental cost curves, and the hourly LMP or system Lambda tied to each specific unit, the system shows the true economic impact of each outage or derate. Margin Analyzer shows how much margin the unit could have made by simulating a generation pattern if the event was avoided.
Benefits
- Explains gross margin variances to budget and forecasted estimate and assign gained or lost opportunity in the monthly “True up” process
- Helps to assess and address risk through PO or MO, preventative and predictive maintenance in order to increase profitability
- Provides incentives when considering a MO during lower priced periods in order to capture the maximum potential margin when the unit is dispatched during peak demand periods
- Assists management with identifying key drivers affecting plant profitability
