A new version of LEAP is now available for download supporting
limited foresight optimization, a technique for simulating planning under incomplete knowledge of future events. Previously, LEAP only supported perfect foresight optimization. The new version allows you to easily create and compare multiple scenarios, each of which can simulate different degrees of foresight. Limited foresight optimization requires use of NEMO v2.2 or later (recently released).
See this page for more information on how to use limited and perfect foresight optimization in LEAP and NEMO. The new version of LEAP also includes minor bug fixes and an improved help system.
It is with the utmost sadness that we report that our cherished colleague Taylor Binnington was tragically killed in a road accident this past weekend, which also took the life of his young son.
Many of you will have had the pleasure of working with and getting support from Taylor either in person or online. Taylor was a brilliant, kind, funny, and generous young man who cared deeply about our mission to build capacity around the world for sustainable energy planning.
