Based on a concept of modelling renewable energy system operation in terms of power transfers between energy sources and energy receivers, a GUI-based simulation environment is presented allowing rapid creation, modification and evaluation of a graph, which visualizes states of the system and transitions between them. A lightweight file format for defining rules, which govern creation of the graph is also introduced.
