Production Pump and Generate

Units: Yes/No
Default Value: True (-1)
Validation Rule: False (0) or True (-1)
Description: If pumped storage/battery is allowed to pump/charge and generate/discharge simultaneously.
Detail:

This setting applies to both pumped storage Generator and Battery classes. It controls whether or not the generation/discharge and pump/charge modes are allowed to occur simultaneously in any one interval. By default this is allowed (Pump and Generate is 'True') but you can prevent this from occurring by setting this to 'False'. When you do this the formulation is modified with integer variables to prevent simultaneous generating/discharging and pumping/charging.

NOTE: The Production setting Unit Commitment Optimality controls whether or not these integer constraints are obeyed. If this setting is on 'Linear' then the integer restrictions will be ignored and simultaneous pumping and generating can still occur.
