UPLAN Users United in San Francisco
San Francisco, March 18, 2008 -- In conjunction with the upcoming release of UPLAN-Altos, LCG Consulting hosted a users conference last week in San Francisco, California. The highly anticipated enhancements of the UPLAN software, which provides comprehensive planning facilities for analyzing many new issues facing electricity market participants, brought out a large number of attendees representing nearly 20 organizations. The conference offered all users, both old hands and beginners, a unique opportunity for networking and exchanging information on many new market developments.
Held at the Parc 55 Hotel near San Francisco's famed financial district, the two-day affair provided a forum for UPLAN users from various sectors of the industry to share their knowledge and experience. Various modeling applications were presented, including renewable portfolio evaluation, developing transmission projects, CRR auctions, ERCOT 5-year plan and regional market analysis. Representatives from LCG Consulting were on hand to present the new features of UPLAN-Altos, slated for release this summer.
The responses from the users were overwhelmingly positive. "It's great to know what others are doing with UPLAN. I was greatly stimulated. Also it's great to explore the possibilities of using UPLAN for what we currently don't. It's been a great opportunity for networking", responded an exited user.
