Resource Stack Chart

Q: How do I Create a Resource Stack Chart?

Resource stack charts are helpful for quickly visualizing the capacity stack of a zone and where the dispatch costs change as you move up the stack.

  1. Start by making sure you have the ResourceStack Year output table. 

  1. Next, make sure the table is sorted by Zone, then by Capacity_Stack (ascending).

  1. Click the Chart button.

  1. Set up the chart X and Y-Axis and enter Titles as shown.  

  1. Make sure to deselect the box for "Show Line Markers" and then click OK.  You'll end up with something like this:

  1. Select the Advanced Designer button from the toolbar.

NOTE: A warning box may appear to let you know that the dataset is large and not all data will appear in the Advanced Designer. Select Yes to continue.

  1. Click the Change Chart Type button near the top left part of the form.

  1. In the new window scroll down to Line Series chart types by typing Step in the search bar and select the Step Line 2D option.

  1. When you are finished, click Save and Exit. Go to full screen for better viewing.
