Improve dispatch_disaggregation to enable calcs with less RAM and in shorter time #563

Closed KathiEsterl closed 1 year ago

KathiEsterl commented 1 year ago

The dispatch_disaggregation is working, but calculating the dispatch with full temporal complexity needs too much RAM and takes too long. Therefore, the plan is to divide the optimization problem (one year, hourly resolution) in several smaller problems (several problems with shorter time periods) while considering information from the first level optimization to take into account long-term behaviour, eg seasonal storage behaviour.
