Plan Decades Ahead in Hours with Cloud-Powered Optimization
PCI GenTrader’s parallelized optimization and elastic cloud compute unlock Integrated Resource Planning (IRP), risk analysis, and origination at scale without upfront hardware, enabling you to Model one to thirty-year horizons across dozens of scenarios in hours instead of days.
Long-Term Planning
Faster Planning, Longer Horizons
Speed, cost control, and open analytics give you the power to plan faster, run deeper studies, and share insights effortlessly.
Fast and Agile at Scale
- Complete multi-year, multi-scenario studies up to 8× faster, finishing overnight instead of in days, so you can iterate quickly on complex IRP and risk analysis.
- Run dozens of scenarios in parallel to capture uncertainty without slowing decision-making.
Cloud Economics
- Avoid sunk costs on underutilized servers. Elastic compute ensures you only pay for resources when they are active.
- Spin up thousands of CPUs for peak workloads without permanent infrastructure. Keep capital expenses predictable.
- Dial up or down scenario complexity and compute power on demand. Align costs with actual study requirements.
Accessible Data
- Publish results directly into an open data lake for seamless integration with BI, AI, and machine learning tools.
- Enable clear, auditable outputs for regulatory filings, internal reviews, and board-level presentations.
- Empower planning, risk, and origination teams to access and analyze results without technical barriers or proprietary formats.
