| Description: | Quantity bid in band |
Purchaser Bid Quantity sets the megawatt part of the demand bid (demand step function). The quantities are incremental by default meaning that the total bid is the sum of all bid quantities. You may change to cumulative style of input, where the bid quantity is the total amount at each point by setting the Offer Quantity Format attribute.
Example (using incremental format):
| Purchaser | Property | Value | Units | Band |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Load | Bid Quantity | 7000 | MW | 1 |
| Load | Bid Quantity | 400 | MW | 2 |
| Load | Bid Quantity | 100 | MW | 3 |
| Load | Bid Quantity | 120 | MW | 4 |
| Load | Bid Quantity | 30 | MW | 5 |
| Load | Bid Price | 10000 | $/MWh | 1 |

| Load | Bid Price | 8500 | $/MWh | 3 |
