Hydro Storage Properties

[tso-martin]

Dear @claytonpbarrows ,
The README file lacks information on the columns that were added to storage.csv when adding the Hydro reservoirs. In particular, I wonder, what the physical meaning of the column "Inflow Limit GWh" is and to which reference interval this energy refers.
Best regards,
Martin

If I recall correctly, this data can be used to describe the energy inflow for open loop phes systems. So it sets a reference point for the max energy inflow coming into the system from upstream. I'm not aware of any model that is making use of this data.

The inflow timeseries are not available, so I am not sure if the information makes sense. From the file history I can see, that this information was added after you published the paper. So you assumed for the paper, that the infeed of the hydro-electric plants follows the given timeseries, right?
