Description

This project uses a Linear programming model of the North American Northeast electricity sector. The model represents hourly operating decisions, as well as capacity investment decisions in generation, transmission and energy storage. The North American Northeast is represented as a 5-node network, including the main hydropower reservoirs of Quebec. The model has been applied to Northeastern North America: Ontario, Quebec, Atlantic Provinces, New England and New York.
