As consultant to Bonneville Power Administration and several other electric utilities, Dr. Cazalet developed the Power Market Decision Analysis Model (PMDAM) to simulate hourly power markets and forward capacity planning over horizons up to 20 years and covering all power plants and transmission lines over the Western American continent. This advanced model was used for many years by BPA for analysis of complex capacity energy exchange contracts with California and Southwest Utilities, transmission planning, resource acquisition, and rate case pricing. He sold this modeling system to Electronic Data Systems (EDS) where it was expanded to other regions of the US and it was also in operation for ten years as a major analysis tool for many US power companies.
