Description:	Method used to calculate transmission rentals
Detail:

Transmission Rental Method set the formula used to compute transmission rents. It can take the following values:

Point-to-Point (value = 0)

The rental is equal to the difference in nodal prices across the transmission line multiplied by loss-adjusted flow on the line.

Flowgate (value = 1)

The rental is equal to the congestion-related shadow price on the line flow multiplied by the line flow.

The setting of this option does not affect the total rents in the system, which are always equal to the settlement surplus, but it does affect the allocation of rents, and thus can affect the revenues to transmission owners.
