This optional column is used to define the wheeling rate between areas in the positive direction and is used to apply economic resistance to flows. Non-null values input in this column will override any values otherwise applied through the area-to-area specification in the Supplemental Area table. Units are $/MWh and should be entered in Economic Base Year currency. Values cannot be negative. Tiered rates can be applied using the Wheeling Tier 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.
