EA Systems Dresden presents a district model for assessing renewable energy integration and retrofit measures. This innovative tool enables detailed load profile calculation. The new concept, with an in-house web interface, combines computing capability with a user-friendly, modular planning environment. From small to large applications, the district model supports calculations involving individual charging stations or building blocks through to entire urban districts. It combines simple, intuitive operation with extensive visualization.
