System Design

Different users have quite different needs. The TESLA system is designed to allow the compute engine to be accessed through a desk-top interactive application or from a remote controller, for example an energy management system. Its databases of recent load and weather experience allow us to monitor it to insure optimal performance.

System Components

The central system component is the TESLA compute engine, along with its supporting data files. The compute engine includes both a forecasting module and a weather effects decomposition module.

Model operation requires an interface to control operation and display results, and to maintain up-to-date load and weather histories. TESLA has available an interface that is integrated with the SORITEC econometric package, and which allows for both model control and data updates. This system requires external inputs of weather and load data, which are typically available over a network connection. The compute engine can also be integrated within a larger data management framework, take its inputs from that system, and return results to the system for display within that architecture. The modular design of the TESLA model allows both interface/control mechanisms to be used in a single installation.
