bound_emission values equal to 0 disappear in output GDX #306

Open ClaraLuisa opened 4 years ago

ClaraLuisa commented 4 years ago

Hey, I am just doing some model runs where I limit emissions in a certain period to 0. The emission bound is considered in some way (however, the emissions are fully not reduced to 0) but also the bound parameter itself is not portrayed in the output gdx (I guess 0 are not passed through?). This is not a big issue, however it is somewhat inconsistent, if the solution is calculated considering the bound but the bound itself is not to be found in the output gdx.

@ClaraLuisa, the output GDX doesn't show values of zero, but these values are taken into account in calculations. Can you elaborate the other issue that the bound was zero but still there were some emissions? Is this only small decimals?
