Enterprise digital twins

Simulate the enterprise before you commit

One twin across generation, water, grid, finance, commercial, assets and environment. Replay a past period or project the next three years, then read the outcome as a briefing rather than a dashboard.

Briefing

Nov 2026 – Oct 2028 · Scenario projection against Current trajectory

Supply security

10.2% of demand is unserved across the 24-month projection — about 2,721 GWh. The constraint is firm capacity, not price.

Decision implications
  1. 01Secure firm capacity before the next dry season; treat new connections as capacity-committed.
  2. 02The outcome moves most with tariff (±12% swings margin by $324m) — that assumption deserves the tightest evidence.
  3. 03Mitigate first: hydrology stress at the lake — owned by Water Resources & Renewable Energy.

Where it breaks

Risks the scenario surfaces, by owner

  • Hydrology stress at the lakeHigh

    Inflow at 72% of average converts directly into lost hydro energy and higher fuel burn.

    Water Resources & Renewable Energy

  • Thermal reliability below planHigh

    Availability at 80% strands capacity the plan assumes can be dispatched.

    Thermal Generation

  • Demand growth outpaces committed capacityHigh

    Growth of 5.2% a year compounds faster than the capacity in the pipeline.

    Corporate Strategy

  • Deferred maintenance spiralMedium

    Spend at 88 of plan defers condition work that returns as outage risk later.

    Technical Services

  • Load shedding exposureHigh

    10.2% of demand goes unserved across the period.

    Grid & dispatch

  • Drawdown below operating comfortHigh

    The lake reaches index 42 at its lowest point.

Capacity basis: 1,180 MW hydro, 1,330 MW thermal, 37 MW solar, 2,547 MW installed (cited public figures). Demand base, tariff, fuel price, fixed cost and hydrology response are illustrative parameters.

Confidence: Two years out, demand and fuel paths begin to dominate.
