Apply grouped-interface transmission flow constraints from ReEDS in PRAS #1

Open patrickbrown4 opened 8 months ago

patrickbrown4 commented 8 months ago

We now have two categories of grouped-interface transmission flow constraints in ReEDS:

  1. Energy flow constraints between transgrp regions: transmission_capacity_initial-r,transgrp
  2. NERC-region PRM trading constraints (after this PR is merged: https://github.nrel.gov/ReEDS/ReEDS-2.0/pull/1222)

We currently model interzonal transmission in ReEDS2PRAS/PRAS using PRAS "Lines", so it seems like we should be able to add these constraints using PRAS "Interfaces" (groups of lines).

After further discussion, we established that addressing this issue would require deeper changes to the PRAS solver. The capability may be added in the future, but not any time soon.
