## Description

This MCP server provides a specialized analytical engine for managing refinery utility ecosystems. It allows AI agents to calculate the net status of critical utilities like steam and power using `calculate_utility_balance`. Users can identify cost-saving measures with `identify_optimization_opportunities`, evaluate the efficiency gains of combined cycle systems via `evaluate_cogeneration_impact`, and account for environmental shifts using `get_seasonal_adjustment_factors`. It is designed to help refinery operators maintain stability across steam, power, water, and air supplies.

## Tools

### calculate_utility_balance
Calculates the net status of each utility

### evaluate_cogeneration_impact
Evaluates the benefits of switching to cogeneration

### get_seasonal_adjustment_factors
Retrieves seasonal adjustment factors for a utility

### identify_optimization_opportunities
Identifies efficiency or cost reduction opportunities

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the current net status of my steam and power utilities for the summer season?
```

**Response:** 
```
The current status is: Steam is in Surplus, and Power is Balanced.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much energy would I save if I switched to cogeneration with an efficiency factor of 0.8?
```

**Response:** 
```
Switching to cogeneration would save 1500 units of energy and reduce your import requirement by 450 units.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Are there any optimization opportunities for my water supply?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, there is an opportunity to increase internal water generation to save 500 units in import costs.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I check if my steam supply is sufficient?**
You can use the `calculate_utility_balance` tool by providing your demand, capacity, and import/export maps to see the net status.

**Can I account for seasonal changes in water demand?**
Yes, the `get_seasonal_adjustment_factors` tool provides multipliers to adjust your expected demand or capacity based on the current season.

**How do I find ways to reduce utility costs?**
Use the `identify_optimization_opportunities` tool with your balance report and cost data to find potential savings.
