Cost Shape Column
Column Type = Text

The optional Cost Shape column is used to specify a shape to the energy cost of a contract.  The shape value will be multiplied by the hourly energy cost.  If not present or contains NULL, this column will be interpreted as a 1 and will not alter the value in the Energy Cost column.

 NOTE: Inputs can be specified for any time period (annual, monthly, weekly, hourly or sub-hourly). For information on how to specify a time series for a variable, see Entering a Time Series.
