  • Scenario
    • discount_rate: Discount rate

    • annual_co2_limit: It is an annual parameter and is in the form explained in the Annual Parameters section.

    • co2_price: the default value is 0.

    • from_year: the modeling time starts from this year.

    • until_year: the modeling time ends at this year.

    • year_step: the step size of the time series.

    • TSS: Time-Series Selection. The name should match one of the items in the TSS tab.

  • Commodity
    • commodity: the name of the commodity.

    • description: the description of the commodity. It is used for the documentation.

  • ConversionProcess
    • conversion_process_name: the name of the conversion process.

    • description: the description of the commodity. It is used for the documentation.

  • ConversionSubProcess
  • TSS
    • TSS_name: the name of the time series selection.

    • description: the description of the time series selection. It is used for the documentation.

    • dt: the time step of the simulation.

Time Dependent Parameters#

Reads the corresponding items from the specified data files. The items which are referenced in the times series selection are only considered in the simulation.

Annual Parameters#

  • single value: The value is the same for all the years.

  • linear interpolation
    • [2015 5; 2020 6;2030 7;2050 10]: 5 in 2015 and the previous years and 10 in 2050 and the next years. The value for the years between 2015 and 2050 is linearly interpolated.

    • [2015 0;2016 NaN]: It means 0 in 2015 and the previous years and the value is not specified for the next years.
