Load distribution #54

Closed rafcastro99 closed 7 years ago

Please clarify how area load is distributed to individual buses. Thanks

claytonpbarrows commented 7 years ago

The MW Load column in bus.csv defines the peak load value at each bus. That value is used to define the static load distribution factors by dividing the MW Load value by the sum of MW Load for each Area. The distribution factors are then used to distribute the area load timeseries values in DAY_AHEAD_regional_load.csv and REAL_TIME_regional_load.csv to buses
