Description: | If recycled storage should restart from their initial volume at the start of each capacity optimization period |
By default Storage End Volume is calculated across the entirety of each simulation step. This means that LT Plan simulations with long steps can lead to optimization problems that are difficult and slow to solve. This option breaks the storage tracking at the start of each capacity optimization period (default being year) and restarts the storage from its Initial Volume. The option applies only to storage with End Effects Method = "Recycle", since this is the only sensible option, as it ensures that the storage trajectories match at the end of one year and start of the next.
