NonConforming Load Column
Column Type = Text
Data for this field is used to input a specific hourly load profile for a bus, and is input in MWs. If data is present for the column, the value for the hour will be assigned directly to the bus load based on the values in the Nonconforming Load Additive or NonConforming Load Net of Zonal Load columns. Non-conforming load is included in the demand and load-weighted LMP reporting for NodalArea and NodalBus output tables.
Non-conforming load can also be assigned to any bus located in an external aggregate area modeled as a Composite Bus, even if the bus does not have load in the Network Definition Dataset (loadflow).
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.
