DOTA AI projects ozone season NOx tons from hourly CEMS data and the dispatch forecast, compares them to allowance holdings, and finds the driver.
From a question to a deployed app.
Ask
Project ozone season NOx tons by unit against our allowance holdings.
Connect
Hourly CEMS data, the dispatch forecast and allowance holdings.
Project
Cumulative tons with a projection band, against the allowance line.
Decide
Environmental, operations and trading decide together: tune the SCR, buy allowances, or both.
- Hourly data, weekly spreadsheet
- Projected to finish 160 tons over holdings, $1.36M exposure
- The driver is Unit 2's slipping SCR performance
- Restore the SCR and the plant finishes inside its allowances, at 1,430 t
The takeaway
No surprises at season end.
