Capacity_Obligation Column
Units = MW
For zones that have the Capacity Obligation Peak Months column populated, the value for each year will be equal to
[Peak Demand] * [1 + (Planning Reserve Requirement) / 100] * [Capacity Obligation Scaling Factor]
Where:
- Peak Demand is the zonal demand for the peak demand hour for the pool in which the zone resides if operating pools are being used; otherwise the peak zonal demand .
- Planning Reserve Requirement is the percentage input for the pool the zone resides in if pools are being used; otherwise it is the value from the zone itself.
If more scaling factors are entered, then these will also be multiplied to get the final value.
