Zusammenfassung:A control method for optimizing an operation of a power plant fleet. The power plant fleet may include multiple operating configurations differentiated by a manner in which assets are engaged. The method may include the steps of: sensing and collecting measured values of the operating parameters for the operating of each of the assets; tuning asset models so to configure a tuned asset model for each of the assets; simulating proposed operating configurations of the power plant fleet using the tuned asset models; and obtaining simulation results from each of the simulation runs, each of the simulation results including a predicted value for a performance indicator.
