Community Modeling and Analysis System (CMAS)

Community Modeling and Analysis System (CMAS) is a software tool used to study and assess the impacts of different energy scenarios on communities. It helps policymakers, engineers, and planners understand how changes like adding renewable energy sources or implementing energy efficiency measures affect local environments, economies, and infrastructure. By simulating various configurations, CMAS provides insights into optimizing energy systems while considering community needs and sustainability goals. Overall, it serves as a decision-making aid to plan resilient and environmentally friendly energy solutions tailored to specific community contexts.
