The variable Fraction of Surviving Peaking Capacity by Type estimates the share of surviving peaking capacity by type. In some regions, there may be no explicit peaking capacity remaining, although there is sufficient capacity with high enough peak time capacity factors to meet peak demand. In these cases, the model produces a floating point error because it is dividing by zero. Here the formula for this variable should be updated to:
