Model power plant

A finite power plant is an energy supplier that offers a configurable amount of power per time slot at a set rate.

User Interface Configuration

The following parameters can be configured:

• Name: Must be unique.
• Energy rate: Selling price of the power plant in cents/kWh.
• Maximum available power: Maximum power that the power plant can supply in kW (in the backend this parameter can also be set based on an uploaded profile).

The configuration interface is shown below:

Backend Configuration

To implement the power plant in a backend simulation one option is available:

Finite Power Plant

profile_kW = {
    0: 0.1,
    8: 0.15,
    12: 0.2,
    19: 0.15,
    22: 0.1
}
