# About the power system planning platform

Pharoes' power system planning platform is designed to support regulators, utilities, and system planners in making robust, cost-efficient, and transparent decisions for future energy systems. Built using cutting-edge optimization algorithms and our proprietary DIA (Distributed Incremental Acceleration) technology, the platform enables high-resolution, long-term planning across generation, transmission, and distribution. It avoids the need for traditional simplifications—such as load blocks or typical days—and solves large-scale problems across thousands of hours and multiple decades with industry-leading performance.

Our tools—such as Ceres, Kairos, and Fides—are used in international development projects, grid operator studies, and decarbonization planning.
