Strategic/Long-Term Planning

The economics of electric power generation has taken center stage in recent years. Polestar has developed Asset Valuation models for use in the decision-making process on purchase offers, rate cases, and shutdown vs. continued operations.

These models include:

• Analysis of economic parameters under deregulated market conditions with regional market clearing prices and special fuel price forecasts, and also contains underlying management, engineering, and regulatory cost drivers.
  
  
• Monte Carlo analysis is used to account for uncertainty in cost and performance projections.
  
  
• These analysis capabilities can be used for:
  • Validation of new capital investments
  • Due diligence
  • Generating technology comparisons
  • Merger and acquisition strategies and long term planning
    
    
• Polestar develops electricity provider market plans including goals, programs, target markets, revenues and resources. Polestar also prepares assessments of electric generating technologies and end-use technologies including environmental impacts, programmatic impacts comparative performance and logistical considerations.
