Some modifications to vSPD to look into Reserve Pivotal Fun Times

vSPD

vectorised Scheduling, Pricing and Dispatch - an audited, mathematical replica of SPD, the pricing and dispatch engine used in the New Zealand electricity market.

Input GDX files are available daily from ..\Datasets\Wholesale\Final_pricing\GDX\ at ftp://ftp.emi.ea.govt.nz.

The Electricity Authority created vSPD using the GAMS software in 2008. Dr Ramu Naidoo was the original author and, until November 2013, the custodian of vSPD. Dr Phil Bishop and Tuong Nguyen now take care of vSPD. Others at the Electricity Authority also contribute.

Several frequently-used basic sets are aliased as follows:

• i_island = ild, ild1
• i_dateTime = dt
• i_tradePeriod = tp
• i_node = n
• i_offer = o, o1
• i_trader = trdr
• i_tradeBlock = trdBlk
• i_bus = b, b1, frB, toB
• i_branch = br, br1
• i_lossSegment = los, los1
• i_branchConstraint = brCstr
• i_ACnodeConstraint = ACnodeCstr
• i_MnodeConstraint = MnodeCstr
• i_energyOfferComponent = NRGofrCmpnt
• i_PLSRofferComponent = PLSofrCmpnt
• i_TWDRofferComponent = TWDofrCmpnt
• i_ILRofferComponent = ILofrCmpnt
• i_energyBidComponent = NRGbidCmpnt
• i_ILRbidComponent = ILbidCmpnt
• i_type1MixedConstraint = t1MixCstr
• i_type2MixedConstraint = t2MixCstr
• i_type1MixedConstraintRHS = t1MixCstrRHS
• i_genericConstraint = gnrcCstr

TODO:

• Aliases yet to be considered i_bid(*) as bid ???,
• The ability to add new set elements through the override facility has been implemented - with just offers for now. To reduce the code required, consider putting new offer, node, branch and constraint elements into the same symbol in the override GDX file.
