TESLA, Inc., and its subsidiaries, TESLA (Europe) Ltd and TESLA Asia Pacific Ltd, develop highly accurate models of power, gas and steam (CHP) demand, and renewable generation models, to a wide variety of clients worldwide. Our offices are in Richmond, VA, USA (headquarters), London, UK, and Auckland, NZ. I invite connection requests from those working on or users of energy demand/load forecasts or wind or PV generation forecasts. TESLAPower, our initial product, was developed for utility companies. Our first models were custom models of control areas, grid supply points/exit points and national grid/TSO load volumes. As deregulation advanced in many countries, TESLA introduced models of load-serving obligations associated with client-specific portfolios of retail supply customers. TESLA also offers models based on publicly available load data for most TSO areas in the US, Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and selected other countries. We also offer TESLAGas, TESLASteam, TESLAWind and TESLASolar, for forecasting other types of energy demand and generation. We are very interested in supplying national-level load forecasting models (especially if disaggregated to regional or distribution circuit areas) and for models of island systems or other systems with limited or no interconnection to other power or gas grids. TESLA uses all available weather data, holiday/special days, events and school schedules. We model the effects of unmetered embedded renewable generation in several major markets, including the UK. TESLA also models demand management impact on load, offering models of both uncontrolled demand and of load net of demand management. TESLA models are available for in-house installation, or can be hosted on our servers. When we begin to work with a prospective client, we develop models for their loads on a free trial basis. Our public data models of ISO/RTO/TSO models for power and gas systems around the world are also available for free trial.
