Flexible load measures on the demand side #48

Closed ryandrewjones closed 8 years ago

ryandrewjones commented 8 years ago

As a user wanting to simulate "actions" taken to make electricity demand flexible, I would like flexible load measure functionality where I can specify that X% of a subsector or technology is "flexible" in year Y, and this gets reflected in the electricity optimization.

  1. User can specify a flexible load measure for a sector, subsector, or technology on the demand side
  2. The flexible load measure "acts" upon the profiles appropriately as they are aggregated across the demand side and passed to the dispatch
