Fuels are the largest direct cost in generating electricity. The complexity of variable costs and emissions complicates fuel origination, supply, inventory and burn management. Lack of accurate and real time analytics inhibit in determining which fuel to use during which time periods to meet changing market needs, effectively manage fuel inventories and logistics.
