Russian term or phrase: расчётныe (опорныe) перспективныe тепловыe и электрическиe нагрузки
формирование расчётных (опорных) перспективных тепловых и электрических нагрузок

This is a task that has to be carried out as part of a feasibility study.

I guess расчётныe means estimated in this context, but I am not at all sure what опорныe means.

Any ideas?

Many thanks.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hello. Please could you explain the reasoning behind "baseline"? Does it mean the minimum amount required to "support" the facility's operations? Thank you!

http://www.new-learn.info/packages/clear/glossary/glosetol.h...

Power demand:
Rate at which electric energy is required and delivered to or by a system over any designated period of time;
http://www.usbr.gov/projects/glossary.jsp
The amount required by a customer during a given period of time;
http://www.hcenergia.com/en/portal.do?IDM=266&NM=3#p

Long-range (future years):
