Description:Revenue from capacity payments

Generator Capacity Revenue is the revenue from capacity payments, calculated when the LT Plan Capacity Payments Enabled setting is 'on'. Capacity Revenue is calculated as:

If Capacity Price is defined as an input,

Capacity Revenue = Capacity Price × (1000 × Firm Capacity) / periods_in_year

Otherwise,

Capacity Revenue = ( Region Capacity Shadow Price + Zone Capacity Shadow Price ) × (1000 × Firm Capacity) / periods_in_year

NOTE: The Zone component applies on when the Zone is defined as capacity type.

The Capacity Price is calculated by LT Plan and passed to subsequent simulation phases.
