7.5 Conclusion
The DSS would be used by a utility in conjunction with its existing 20-year stra-
tegic plans or life cycle plans. The solution to the DSS would indicate the optimal
time at which to renew a given asset. The renewal cost would then be integrated
into the utility
is plan to ensure that funding is available when required.
Throughout this chapter, risk is handled as an abstract concept. In fact, all the
elements of the DSS are handled in this way. The next chapter provides statistical
methods for an application of the various components of the model. It also dem-
onstrates the way in which an optimal solution may be determined.
