Abstract
The issue of energy system planning, including the planning of local energy systems, is critical, since it affects the security of energy supplies in communities, regions, and consequently the security of energy supply within the country. Energy planning is a complex process that requires integration of different goals i.e. improvement of energy efficiency, increase in the share of renewables in the energy balance and CO2} emission reduction. Integration of the requirements and objectives may be supported by the computer system tailored to collect and to process the data on energy and fuels consumption. This paper presents the assumptions made during the ALEP-PL computer software development. Advanced local energy planning is presented and the role of information systems in energy planning is discussed. In addition, the paper presents the advantages and disadvantages of existing computer applications supporting energy planning. The paper presents the current version of the ALEP-PL, which consists of database and web application and compares the application with existing solutions. The entity relationship diagram of ALEP-PL database is discussed. The main application interfaces are presented. The paper defines the main actors of the system and discusses the use case diagram. Examples of the use case analysis enabled the demonstration of the software functionality.
