It's going to be all over the you know you're going through what you're up to it really are too good to be used to do you want to be one but I guess to the police to know that there's no proof I might be your whole life and you're the only good news to make those prone to news you want to hear whatever anecdotes he might do you must be here with me so. Look I'm sure you know. We are easy and you think you're going to be my English recall I see numbers are childhood. You got it and I was in your list. We were just that you know interacting if I was younger should be your mommy and why the focus. They cannot be with you but we want to thank you Rob is the for and rightly so cheesy as a legal mild winter night for me because I'm out forty three percent of the work here right. Winter Baseball fire country out there that you know we're on our plans for the console. It wasn't my chain. I grew up in the allocation of these parts from near the far right. So there are major part of the Windsor on the way the machine has its hour and the down towers are right will focus on the target was. When the sound of morning is the largest from one another. We're also going to account for the largest portion of which is the call as you see in our bridges above. This is kind of your perspective that we really don't market and cost about three hundred now numbers to order issue. And because they are no hard and most of them didn't want to minimize their respective major channels A G e Bay through their contracts I mean the buyers one three years living without knowledge over time rival me or humming power goes by as I write this I will model we will illustrate to you. The pricing and focus of our project within that supply chain blue dots of represents the buyers. The yellow doesn't answer to me the men are actually phones on how even that is a real demand. It's not as admired how many hours of their life or so wanted three years later the man fired by the right as we are here his base and he then was ordering the allocation. There's ours under the wires only crime like this. Now show the actual numbers are as well you know I think that's kind of resume one of three hundred man and how they're a million of them in a market. It's hard for G.E. to rethink how many hours to order from their client in order to meet and greet him and so we'll come up with the bone strength we can create the capital and the captain of the six model was interested Manderley I feel I think I was right for the fires that minimize So translation over the line of the man in the area as opposed to the next scene of the man or woman as well in what is coming this week of the new venture my own doesn't work out of the man is used as. Again what is wrong with a smile and never on our planet outnumbered human part of when and where and how many times to order. I'm out of there are three things eight point five billion dollars Now they want to step before getting the money are right. We begin with determining our national forecast for wind power we analyze several factors that we believe might back not the man included fossil fuel production prices and the cost of winter. Well the cost of fossil fuel has gone up over the past decade. There is not a significant correlation between higher wind power again. And these rising fuel prices. Rather the significant factors are as follows The S. and P. five hundred only the index of stocks across United States represents all to leave the U.S. economy and general volatility in the U.S. when market G.D.P. which shows general row over the U.S. economy over the past decade and also down for general growth in the entire industry the production tax credit that you're one step further toward our tax credit given to wind farms out of the tempers ten years of insulation and wind for this and whole wind power capacity installed for a year. The storm here compiled over the last decade before with your question on those factors and him of the following forecast model the most significant factor we discovered that it back in demand was the P.T.C. which the production tax credit expiration has a strong impact on the overall demand for wind power on New Year's over the production times pretty expensive to expire. There is a spike in demand order to have these tax credits and the years following expiration when there is no longer reduction tax credits wind power becomes the next amount of coal compared to other fuel sources and least of all over again we also added all the rest of after using the years create this demand for wind power as. In the forecast model. This is because there has been huge volatility in the wind power market over the past several years in order to counter these various social political changes very very difficult to want to buy we at this are risk factors the group our show actually man for wind towers pretty easy got he got nine in the green bar restaurant he doesn't tend to two thousand and twelve show or past demand. You may notice the usually doesn't well yeah five the demand is because you're an expected production tax credit expiration at the end of the year. Therefore one would expect by command ordered back to the trade in a while is all well and good is now how many towers are of your cost us the crux of the issue is knowing where in the US The demands possible. We see here the issue of very believing state wide demand is the essence of California your scheme doesn't buy the two thousand five out or has three percent of the four Wind Power Man and you've got the six in chance of nine percent in two thousand and seven balls up one percent disclosure wished on statewide against wind power is not necessarily left of the national demand. Therefore we implemented the following strategy to combat this variability amongst a wide wind power plant. We did you first you come up with a national point forecast as we put out earlier we then determine an average between demand for forking over the past decade and use that as a statewide mean demand and then order to account for the variability amongst a white man for wind power. It is very Billie and gender instead of casting demand scenario. This is a very important input into our state casting opposition all natural that we were going to more detail as to how our stochastic opposition model. You know provide for the value. Thank you David. Now we can tell you where you were the towers solely to match your model takes an alcohol losing such as their supplier location supplier pasties towers you get your transportation costs and the ordering costs now are hardly uses that information and help with an APU will come in post which is where we have come here to our group of the purpose of this project is to minimize the expected cost of G.E. So what our model does is it minimizes the ordering loss in the present and is expected transportation costs. So our model looks to this situation in two stages ordering stage new transportation the model makes the decision of how many towers to order and where to water them from in the present using these present on track off work off and hedges against those demands in areas which we generated previously which take place in the future. Now you may want to do is actually going to implement these models. So we work closely with cheese end users to develop a tool to solve this optimization problem. He is data is loaded into Microsoft Excel and then that data is sent to intruders we've developed which runs. L B S all which is an open source software becomes a no cost to G.D.P. The data is then I'll put no useful back into the pool in the summary and then the story of along with the original data that created here. This is our actual tool that we've given to G.. So you can see a user would simply come in late this time period in question you're interested in in this case from first quarter fourth quarter two thousand day by clicking the read data well. The data is loaded into the model and then the user is presented with three options. We've talked about the optimize You can hear an awful long term off the user going off the road and also just to show their suppliers ready for the moment money of their work the system for the live. Vision as well as regional analysis issue where it would be useful to add a new manufacturing facility in this case by clicking the outline of fun. You'll see a summary of the results for your article through all three and that information will be written for live you feel free used in the marks of yourself and now real will go into the case studies that we perform follow their own law it is illustrated however long this five of the first case study takes into account deterministic and uses as an actual demand to do it. I didn't get into the optimization and the column in the middle shows actual patient in two thousand and eight in terms of little towers or pieces and this whole shows given gene actually demands a dozen eggs. What solution a model would provide and some of the interesting differences are with poor examples of biology Gene ordered six hundred towers from the supplier two thousand a Wal-Mart only order twenty and that can be explained by the fact that much less than predicted demand in that region and to because it was just like she had to ship out those towers to another region with higher demand and doing so in her millions of dollars but someone knows the demand in this case it was this and summary of the potential savings that Gene could have if they had you are out. The Schmo will demand already you know and this could be considered the upper bound of potential savings the demand is going to be known which is unrealistic. Of course and all of this is accounted for by transportation because that is where the cost variability of the second case study only the first it takes the uncertainty into account due to the fact that the contracts of the suppliers of maybe. One to three years before the demand actually curse and in this case the demand for is the demand of the areas that we generate using the state. Fortunately for them and with very good again as you discussed in the form get. And each run of the market is on the basis of hundreds of statements never once again. G.'s actual condition of the reference and this is the solution that our market would provide and once again you can see that the supplier G M O has much less power than the actual However in this case the end of it is due to the mathematics from the forecasting model and not from actual demand. So it makes sense that from these my scenarios much more of the towers are awarded than we knew that this is a summary of the savings as you would have if they could use our optimization with a store cast to demand and it is important to know that this is the main to bloom and either for G.E. you want to use or still have to do math to generate a particular policy. This is a more realistic estimate of savings of five million job I don't really think Mariel's And once again this is contributing to buy most of the trust with the case and because it was a supplier and consumers are much. Your suppliers work in the mall and the way you conduct in this is all the using the existing all suppliers and the one I want to take his or her out of the model to see the end happen on the objective function or the total cost and obviously the supplier that have had the highest reason for cause may think now is the most crucial supply and you because you know that supplier K. is by far the most and once again supplier G.E. which we've discussed before the demand is a lot of this gets to those who are houses but in terms of the region. We take each of the fifty two regions are more mobile and consider which will be the best place to install the use of wireless and this is done while giving other costs like boring cost control of cost and we just consider the best place to store and use wired in terms of transportation because the Oklahoma and Texas are very highly ranked which makes sense because there will wind up locations and unfortunately in Georgia as well when we're doing the loop and the loop so we are going to buy the easy way for us by way of the red car they will be out front with your policy tools out there and we're just explain your jihad use them all in school. It's definitely a big illustrate eight point five billion dollars We also know that G.E. with the original Big Wheels you integrate the first senior transition. Congress is currently in transportation resource an apartment and in the first year stores an apartment does not have access to transportation confit but IMO you really get that and we also have G.E. with nominally right more than one. And marginal and we also like easily spaniel. Currently I want to point off the low point. I mean what I'm also going to you Bill is in my book and me my favorite among can also account for the supplier to locations as well as be integrated with the current database where you update the data in the future. I soak meat in there. The moment. Others are there certain of later the machine and also to me you can't use your neck like a neck and lose our presentation be in question which I do not taken to calling you from cause of our or there is no reason I see you. But for a what's wrong. So if you have this information you need to use a very I believe the highest way or do you know what is the leading cause you call if you know the surface of the ordering cos the total whirring cost at for example first supplier in China will look at their ports locations the locations where the hours get shipped to sew up the total power cost for that supplier China for example in a in a port look ation is already includes both the power cost and the transportation cost to get it there. So it is included in the purchase and you all were changing their number to the patients zero from those locations which are extremely well with their own all you know they would. Almost right now on fire or you're starting out you know you should tell your wife we're very good we're more work to erode.
