Production Dispatch by Battery Station

Units:	Yes/No
Default Value:	True (-1)
Validation Rule:	False (0) or True (-1)
Description:	If batteries should be aggregated through manual or automatic battery stations for dispatch.

Production Dispatch By Battery Station switches on/off aggregation of batteries into Battery stations, and can take the following values:

False (value = 0)

Batteries are not aggregated into Battery stations. Battery Station definitions supplied by the user are ignored. Automatic Battery station aggregation (Battery Station Aggregation Mode) will not occur.

True (value = -1)

Batteries are aggregated into Battery stations via user-supplied Battery Station objects. In addition, any defined automatic aggregation will occur.

The aggregation is done during preprocessing of data and applies to the entire simulation. Aggregating batteries this way can reduce the size of the mathematical problem solved in the simulation and hence improve performance. To make use of this facility you must first defined Battery Station objects or enable automatic aggregation (Battery Station Aggregation Mode).
