The optional Daily Fuel Minimum column is used to specify a minimum fuel usage using the Fuel Optimization logic. All resources that utilize this fuel directly or indirectly (via a Reference Fuel) will be cumulatively required to use at least this amount per day. If this value >= 0 for any fuels used in the system, then the Fuel Optimization logic will be invoked for the dispatch. If left blank, no minimum is applied. The minimum is specified in the same units as the Fuel Units column for each fuel (e.g., mmBtu by default).
NOTE: This logic is only available when Commitment Optimization is used.
NOTE: Inputs can be specified for any time period (annual, monthly, weekly, or hourly); however, if a weekly/hourly time series is referenced, the value used for the day will be based on the last hour of the day. See Entering a Time Series for more information.
