Facility Constraints Built Coefficient

Units:	-
Mode:	Input Only
Multi-band:	False
Default Value:	0
Validation Rule:	Any Value
Key Property:	No
Description:	Coefficient on binary variable indicating if any capacity is built to date

Facility Constraints Built Coefficient is the left-hand side coefficient on the binary (0,1) variable indicating if any capacity is built to date in LT Plan.

With the coefficient represented by a_(i,j) the following term is added to the formulation:

... + a_(i,j) × ∑ ( t = 1, k ) (If( Facility Units Built _t = 0, 0, 1)) ... {≤, ≥, =} b_j

where:
k is the current period e.g. year of the simulation
