Legacy campaign

The Sun Moves the Peak (2002–2021)

Solar can change the shape of your supply chart. The hard hours may be waiting on the other side of sunset.

Build one utility across nine generations. This chapter is part of that journey.

The seventh Legacy generation begins in 2002 with the company you have carried through six previous terms. Its inherited fleet may offer a useful foundation or a lot of unfinished work.

Your featured objective focuses on serving evening demand, alongside a cleaner electricity supply. A northern import restriction during July and August 2021 adds another reason to look closely at local supply and storage.

  1. Follow the evening load

    Check supply after solar output falls. More daytime generation can help charge storage, but the evening still needs enough usable power.

  2. Prepare for restricted imports

    Use the scenario's advance warning to plan for the late-term wildfire disruption. Do not assume the northern connection can always fill the gap.

  3. Lower emissions without losing service

    Compare the emissions goal with reliability, bills and debt. A cleaner portfolio has to keep supplying the customers it serves.

Put your plan to the test

Continue the campaign and build for the hours when a sunny day has already ended.

Open the campaign setup to begin, or continue your existing company. Later generations inherit the choices you made before them.
