Summary
Focusing on single year(s) at a much higher temporal resolution than what would be possible in the long-term Integrated European Model (IEM). Results from the pathways analysis of the IEM will be used as inputs to the unit commitment model PLEXOS . PLEXOS will analyse a shorter time horizon with more operational detail (e.g., ramp rates, forced outages, stochastic behaviour of renewables, operating reserves) to verify the feasibility of the dispatch calculated in the IEM and of the resulting system configuration.
