Generator Min Pump Time, for a pumped storage generator, is the minimum number of hours a unit runs when in pump mode. This property is used in combination with Min Pump Load and triggers the formulation of pump-mode unit commitment, analogous to Min Up Time and Min Stable Level. You may optionally define Initial Hours Pumping.
