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.
- Start by making sure you have the ResourceStack Year output table.
- Next, make sure the table is sorted by Zone, then by Capacity_Stack (ascending).
- Click the Chart button.
- Set up the chart X and Y-Axis and enter Titles as shown.
- Make sure to deselect the box for "Show Line Markers" and then click OK. You'll end up with something like this:
- 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.
- Click the Change Chart Type button near the top left part of the form.
- 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.
- When you are finished, click Save and Exit. Go to full screen for better viewing.
