sector undergoes the clean energy transition. GridLab has released a new report,
<b>Advancing resource adequacy analysis with the GridPath RA Toolkit: A case study of the Western US.
</b>Stemming from a collaboration between GridLab, Moment Energy Insights and Blue Marble Analytics, the GridPathRA Toolkit supports advanced resource adequacy analysis for the Western United states. It advances the characterization of three phenomena that
will be increasingly important for understanding RA in future power systems: weather-driven relationships between load and resource availability; capabilities and constraints of energy limited resources; and transmission flows and regional coordination.<span style="border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in"> </span></span><span style="color:#888888"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#666666;letter-spacing:.15pt">A core purpose of this initiative was to develop an advanced, publicly available, and transparent toolkit for resource adequacy analysis — the Toolkit leverages
publicly available data and the GridPath open-source power system platform. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the Toolkit, a Western US 2026 resource adequacy analysis case study was developed. Three portfolio compositions were analyzed to inform near-term
planning decisions. The case study describes near-term RA risk, the value of coherent weather datasets, and opportunities for efficient solutions to mitigate RA risk. <span style="border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in"> </span></span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;color:#666666;letter-spacing:.15pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

the <a href="http://gridlab.org/gridpathratoolkit" target="_blank">website</a>. The Toolkit can be leveraged by regulators, utilities, researchers, and other stakeholders to conduct independent and publicly accessible RA analysis. The GridPath RA Toolkit study
was presented at a public webinar hosted by the Energy Systems Integration Group.<span style="border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in"> <a href="https://gridlab.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/GridLab_RA-Toolkit_Presentation.pdf" target="_blank"><span style="color:#71A8A6">Download
