| Description: | Load served to customers at the node |
Node Customer Load is all the load served to customers at the node and is defined as:
Customer Load = Load - (Unserved Energy + Demand Curtailed) - (Pump Load + Generator Auxiliary Use) - Losses - Fixed Generation - Heat Plant Load (Usage) - Gas Plant Energy Consumption - Gas Storage Energy Consumption - Water Plant Energy Consumption
Customer Load is the load that is actually paid for by customers, not including generators, as opposed to Load which includes loads that are not part of 'consumption' but must be generated for all the same.
Note that, for the case where the Node defines Price as an input:
Customer Load = Dump Energy
