Detail:

Generator Mark-up Point is a load point for use with multi-point Mark-up or Bid-Cost Mark-up. This property controls the breakpoints between bands of mark-up over-riding the default banding behaviour described in the Mark-up property page. Note that mark-up is not applied to generation below Min Stable Level unless the Competition Mark-up Min Stable Level setting is on.

The number of mark-up points (bands) should be one less than the Mark-up bands as the final mark-up band will be extended to the capacity of the generator.

Example:

Property	Value	Units	Band
Units	1	-	1
Max Capacity	100	MW	1
Min Stable Level	40	MW	1
Fuel Price	5	$/GJ	1
Heat Rate	10	GJ/MWh	1
Mark-up	1	$/MWh	1
Mark-up	5	$/MWh	2
Mark-up Point	60	MW	1

In the above example a mark-up of $1/MWh is applied to generation from 40 to 60 MW while $5 is applied above 60 MW.
