MORSE is a model of the Spanish electricity sector, developed by the Institute for Research in Technology (Instituto de Investigación Tecnológica, IIT) in collaboration with Endesa. It is intended for strategic analysis of the evolution of this sector, especially when changes of the utilities structure, new regulations, or new generation technologies take place.
This collaboration focus on providing the functionality needed to end up with a proper regulatory simulation tool, to analyze the impact of the decisions of the regulator on the investments, the operation, and the final sector balance. Some of the main tasks are the improvement of the representation of the incomes and costs of the electricity sector, and of the investments module to provide it with better chronological detail and account for the reserves requirements of the system.
