mpc.reserves fields #95

Closed frrndn closed 5 years ago

frrndn commented 6 years ago

Hello, is there any data available on the reserve subfields of mpc.reserves? such as:

%mpc.reserves.cost ;
%mpc.reserves.qty ;
%mpc.reserves.zones;
%mpc.reserves.req;

Currently trying to generate a unit commitment process with the RTS, but this input is required to do so.

@frrndn sorry for the slow response. We don't currently have data on mpc.reserves.cost, but data for mpc.reserves.zones should be available in reserves.csv, and data for mpc.reserves.req is available in the timeseries_data_files as referenced by some entries in timeseries_pointers.csv. I'm not sure what is meant by mpc.reserves.qty. If it's capacity available to provide reserves, we haven't provided that since it should be limited by the PMax MW - Pg and subject to the ramping limits of a generator within the Timeframe defined in reserves.csv.

Also, I wasn't aware that MATPOWER supported reserve definitions. If you extend the conversion script to include reserve definitions, please submit a PR. Thanks!

I just (re) found #41. This is a duplicate of that issue.
