Description:	Coefficient of number of units retired

Gas Node Constraints Units Retired Coefficient is the left-hand side coefficient in the constraint of the binary (0,1) variable indicating if the Gas Node is retired to date.

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

... + a_(i,j) × ∑ ( t = 1, k ) ( Gas Node Units Retired _t ) ... {≤, ≥, =} b_j

where:

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