Objectives
This training session presents the Ariane software, dedicated to the simulation and optimization of power plants. It will enable attendees to understand the different concepts of energy production simulation and optimization, in particular through its operating principles.
By the end of the session, participants will have a practical knowledge of Ariane use and benefits.

Who should attend?
This training session is particularly relevant for the people involved in the production of energy such as steam, electricity or hot water on an industrial site. They are mainly Energy managers, Utilities Managers, Production Managers, engineers involved in the production planning, the development of infrastructures, the purchase of utilities or the negociation of cogeneration contracts. This training is also relevant to persons in charge of the design of such installations.
