The effects are usually seen within the electricity exchange market and the significant price fluctuations. Businesses can profit from these exchange fluctuations which will lead to substantial positive cost…
In todays blog post we would like to introduce you to a new function available within the energy management – the box-whisker-plots. When it comes to analysing performance indicators the often used bar charts and line diagramms are usually not good enough as they cannot properly display the scattering of all the values. The scatterplot…
