| Description: | Penalty for violatiog the Max Volume constraint |
Storage Max Volume Penalty is the penalty for violating the Max Volume constraint. The default value of -1 means the constraint is 'hard' and cannot be violated. A value of zero relaxes the constraint and any positive values allows violation at a cost. The violation penalty is expressed in energy terms ($/MWh), therefore if your Storage Model is not "Energy" you should define Downstream Efficiency so the penalty can be interpreted in terms of volume of water in the optimization.
Violations and cost are reported in the properties Max Volume Violation and Max Volume Violation Cost.
