EEA, Inc. - Natural Gas Market Data and Forecasting System. At the heart of the system is a comprehensive gas transmission network that solves for natural gas supply and demand for the U.S., Canada, and northern Mexico.
Results are available at the node level.
In the power generation sector, the model solves for monthly electricity demand, power generation by type of fuel, generating capacity additions, and fuel use. EEA has developed a user interface and post-processor to simplify the creation of scenario input and speed up output processing. The Gas Market Data and Forecasting System was used to complete the 1999 study on the North American Gas Market for the National Petroleum Council, and is used annually to complete the GRI Baseline Projection. The system has been widely used by gas producers, pipelines, electric utilities, independent power providers, and LDCs for internal strategic planning. In addition, the model has been licensed for internal use by one company, and is being used successfully for their strategic planning.
