MISER-SI automatically determines the optimal operation of the system during the phases of construction when there may be periods of reduced capacity or unavailability. In addition MISER can be used to identify contingency plans for operating the system in the event of the coincidental failure of other assets during the construction period. If required the analysis can be undertaken at 30 minute or hourly time-steps using the sub-daily analysis MISER extension.
MISER-SI extends the capabilities of MISER-S into the realms of optimal investment planning by finding the best set of schemes, their implementation dates and the most efficient operating
policy to ensure reliable supplies to customers at minimum total cost.
