Error in reserve_t

Open e-zaline opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

I have set a constant reserve up of 10 MW. In my reserve_t output sheet, when I sum the reserves that are procured, I obtain almost always 10 MW, except for a few timesteps (see below) image

It could be related to reserves in VRE (i.e. plants with a profile) wich are the ones in my case that have very high values when contributing to the reserves.

Is this downward reserve? VRE can often supply lots of downward reserve for free. The reserve demand equation is greater than, so it can provide more than needed.

@jkiviluo No, this is upward reserve

Is it curtailing wind in those moments? Again, providing that as upward reserve is then free.

Closing this, since it very likely is not a real issue. Can be opened if resurfaces.
