The model suggests that energy efficiency and security are achieved through strategic ex ante plans and operational ex post decisions. A prototype of a Decision Support System (DSS) kernel is elaborated. The product comprises a modeling warehouse for handling the modeling process, and Web services for integrating DSS components designed by the project partners. A novel technique built on the Structured Modeling Technology developed in the past ensures consistency of the modular components of the modeling process including data preparation, data modification, definition of user preferences, integrated model analysis, and presentation of the results.
