Pan & Zoom window Energy system drawing ‘Drag and drop’ component library Operation and investment analysis
1. Set Timesteps ... 1-3 days (24-72 timesteps) per segment are recommended for operational analysis
The sum of Weight over all Segments must equal one year (365 when Timestep is set as 24 hours) 2. Set Segments ... The load and price profiles given for each component is multiplied with the Coefficient for the respective Segment Any number of Segments (seasons) may be specified by clicking New.
3. Set Years ... The Years parameter defines the Investment periods in the case. They do NOT have to be of equal length. The load and price profiles given for each component is multiplied with the Coefficient for each Year
Utility buy-back market Electricity spot market Electricity and heat loads CHP alt. 3: High quality wood waste fired CHP CHP alt. 2: Low quality waste fired CHP Electric peak load boiler CHP alt. 1: Gas fired CHP ... Case layout ... Electricity grid District heating grid
... Heat load ... Technology specific data used by Operational analysis Data used by Investment analysis; included in all components When no parameters are given, this component is valid in all Segments, Years and Investment alternatives
... El source ... These tables are always displayed as a function of the Timesteps setting (here: 24)
... El market ... The El market is an option to sell electricity at a given price (constant or variable). Can also represent a Load.
... Power line ... eTransport uses DC Power Flow to calculate the electricity network flows. Any number of lines and cables may be specified.
... Gas source ... This source is included in Investment alternative CHP1 The pressure setting is only valid when the Gas Source is connected to a Gas Node in a gas network.
... Waste source ... This source is included in Investment alternative CHP2
... Boiler ... The boiler is defined as a separate Investment alternative
