Region Load Scalar

Units: -
Mode: Input Only
Multi-band: True
Default Value: 1
Validation Rule: Any Value
Key Property: No
Description: Scale factor for raw load figures (to convert as required to nodal load)
Detail:

Region Load Scalar is used to scale the input Load. This is useful as a simple way of either:

  • escalating loads over time; or
  • scaling down loads to account for transmission losses; or
  • creating different load Scenarios; or
  • stochastic loads by linking the Load Scalar to a Variable.

Example:

Property Value Units Scenario
Load Scalar 1.05 - HIGH LOAD
Load Scalar 1 - BASE LOAD
Load Scalar 0.95 - LOW LOAD
