| Description: | Load point for use with multi-point [Mark-up] or [Bid-Cost Mark-up]. |
Generator Mark-up Point is a load point for use with multi-point Mark-up or Bid-Cost Mark-up. This property controls the breakpoints between bands of mark-up over-riding the default banding behaviour described in the Mark-up property page. Note that mark-up is not applied to generation below Min Stable Level unless the Competition Mark-up Min Stable Level setting is on.
The number of mark-up points (bands) should be one less than the Mark-up bands as the final mark-up band will be extended to the capacity of the generator.
Example:
| Property | Value | Units | Band |
|---|---|---|---|
| Units | 1 | - | 1 |
| Max Capacity | 100 | MW | 1 |
| Min Stable Level | 40 | MW | 1 |
| Fuel Price | 5 | $/GJ | 1 |
| Heat Rate | 10 | GJ/MWh | 1 |
| Mark-up | 1 | $/MWh | 1 |
| Mark-up | 5 | $/MWh | 2 |
| Mark-up Point | 60 | MW | 1 |
In the above example a mark-up of $1/MWh is applied to generation from 40 to 60 MW while $5 is applied above 60 MW.
