Transmission Detail

Units:	-
Default Value:	1
Validation Rule:	In (0,1,2)
Description:	Level of detail used in transmission modeling
Detail:

Transmission Detail controls the level of detail of the transmission network.

The attribute can take these values:

Nodal (value = 0)

The full transmission network is modelled to nodal level and the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) is computed.

Regional (value = 1)

The transmission network is modelled only to the Region level with all resources inside the region connected to a single notional node. Only links between regions are modelled and a transportation algorithm computes the flows.

Zonal (value = 2)

The transmission network is modelled only to the Zone level with all resources inside the zone connected to a single notional node. Only links between zones are modelled and a transportation algorithm computes flows. Nodes that are not associated with a Zone are included as 'zones' by themselves.
