Adequacy Study

An Adequacy Study is an evaluation to ensure that a planned electrical power system can reliably supply the required energy for a specific region or customer. It assesses whether the existing infrastructure and future expansions are sufficient to meet current and projected demands without causing shortages or overloads. This study considers factors like system capacity, generation sources, and transmission capabilities, helping planners identify potential gaps or improvements needed. In essence, it ensures that the electrical supply will be dependable and capable of supporting economic growth and consistent service.
