The model¶
The same model, as math
A plain n.optimize(), and its multi-period and stochastic classes, in one file. Every second-stage quantity spans a scenario (a future dispatch is chosen in) and every asset stands in the investment periods its build year and lifetime span. A parameter spans scenario exactly when PyPSA reads it per scenario. Capacity is chosen once, before the future is known, and paid once per active period at its cost in expectation over the scenarios; operation is the expectation over the scenarios' weights, with a share priced at the tail through the CVaR rows, which stand only where that share is positive. A plain run feeds one scenario, one period, all-active masks and unit weights, and the model collapses to the standard one. A security-constrained run copies each branch flow limit once per outage in an outage set that a plain run leaves empty. Which snapshots an asset is active in, a scenario's weight, and the outage factors are data prep.

| \(\mathrm{ru}\) | Generator_ramp_limit_up over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — most a generator may raise its output between snapshots, per unit of nominal power; no value means no limit — read at the later of the two snapshots, so the limit may change over time |

Definitions¶
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| \(\mathit{Generator\_previous\_p}\) | Generator_previous_p over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — the output a generator carries into a snapshot — at the first, the p_init it brought in where it came in running and nothing where it came in off; the previous snapshot's after that |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_ramp\_up\_allowance}\) | Generator_ramp_up_allowance over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — how far a generator may raise output between two snapshots — its ramp limit of the build while it stays on, plus its start-up ramp in the snapshot it turns on |

| \(\mathit{StorageUnit\_charge\_carried\_in}\) | StorageUnit_charge_carried_in over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{S}\) — the charge a unit opens a snapshot with — at the first snapshot it stands in, its last such snapshot's less standing loss where it is cyclic and the given initial charge, which no standing loss has touched yet, where it is not; the previous snapshot's less standing loss otherwise. A unit built in a later period opens in that period, and a cyclic one that retires closes on its own last snapshot. Per period, the same holds with each investment period as the horizon |
| \(\mathit{Store\_energy\_carried\_in}\) | Store_energy_carried_in over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{V}\) — the energy a store opens a snapshot with — at the first snapshot it stands in, its last such snapshot's less standing loss where it is cyclic and the given initial energy, which no standing loss has touched yet, where it is not; the previous snapshot's less standing loss otherwise. A store built in a later period opens in that period, and a cyclic one that retires closes on its own last snapshot. Per period, the same holds with each investment period as the horizon |
| \(\mathit{total\_cost}\) | total_cost (scalar) — what the system costs — capacity once per active period at its expected cost over the scenarios, operation in expectation over the scenarios, and a share of it at the tail |
| \(\mathit{Bus\_injection}\) | Bus_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) — what every component puts into a bus, less what it takes out of it; PyPSA writes each term into the balance, and a load on its right-hand side |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_previous\_status}\) | Generator_previous_status over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — the commitment state a generator carries into a snapshot — the state it brought into the horizon at the first, the previous snapshot's after that |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_p\_nom\_effective}\) | Generator_p_nom_effective over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{G}\) — the build a generator's limits are taken against — the chosen one where it is extendable, the given one otherwise |
| \(\mathrm{Generator\_ramp\_up\_rate}\) | Generator_ramp_up_rate over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — the ramp limit a unit's up row reads — PyPSA's ramp_limit_up, or the full build where it has none, since a start-up ramp alone builds the row |
| \(\mathrm{Generator\_ramp\_down\_rate}\) | Generator_ramp_down_rate over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — the ramp limit a unit's down row reads — PyPSA's ramp_limit_down, or the full build where it has none, since a shut-down ramp alone builds the row |

| \(\mathrm{Generator\_shut\_down\_rate}\) | Generator_shut_down_rate over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{G}\) — the shut-down ramp a unit's down row reads — PyPSA's ramp_limit_shut_down, or the full build where it has none |
| \(\mathrm{Generator\_p\_nom\_committed}\) | Generator_p_nom_committed over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{G}\) — the build a committed unit's ramp rows are taken against — one module where the build is extendable and modular, the given build otherwise |
| \(\mathit{risk\_weighted\_opex}\) | risk_weighted_opex (scalar) |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_injection}\) | Generator_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) |
| \(\mathrm{Load\_injection}\) | Load_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) |
| \(\mathit{StorageUnit\_injection}\) | StorageUnit_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) |
| \(\mathit{Store\_injection}\) | Store_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) |
| \(\mathit{scenario\_opex}\) | scenario_opex over \(\Xi\) — what a future costs to run — every operating term, weighted by the snapshot's hours and its period, before the scenario's own weight; a start and a stop cost what they cost, unweighted, as PyPSA adds them (optimize.py:414-429) |
| \(\mathrm{Load\_demand}\) | Load_demand over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{D}\) — what a load draws from its bus's balance — its demand times its sign where it is active, nothing where it is not, since PyPSA drops an inactive load from the balance (constraints.py:1537-1538) |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_opex}\) | Generator_opex over \(\Xi\) |
| \(\mathit{StorageUnit\_opex}\) | StorageUnit_opex over \(\Xi\) |
| \(\mathit{Store\_opex}\) | Store_opex over \(\Xi\) |
\(t \ominus k\) denotes cyclic translation: index \(t-k\) taken modulo the size of the dimension (roll). Plain \(t-k\) (shift) has no wraparound — terms translated past the edge are simply absent.
\(t \ominus^{\mathrm{relation}(t)} k\) denotes a translation counted inside the group a relation puts \(t\) in (shift(by=relation)), so a term never crosses out of its own group.
\(\mathrm{pos}(t)\) denotes where index \(t\) sits along its dimension's own order — the order shift steps along, not the order labels sort in — counted from \(0\). The index itself stays the coordinate, so \(t\) compares against labels and \(\mathrm{pos}(t)\) against positions.
\(\mathrm{pos}_{\mathrm{relation}(t)}(t)\) counts within the group a relation puts \(t\) in: the subscript names the map, \(\mathcal{T}_{\mathrm{relation}(t)}\) is the group it lands in, and that group has a first position of its own.

The spec, differential/pypsa/rungs/rung_29_storage_per_period.yaml — the file projected onto what this rung builds:
description: A plain `n.optimize()`, and its multi-period and stochastic classes, in one file. Every second-stage
quantity spans a `scenario` (a future dispatch is chosen in) and every asset stands in the investment
`period`s its build year and lifetime span. A parameter spans `scenario` exactly when PyPSA reads it
per scenario. Capacity is chosen once, before the future is known, and paid once per active period at
its cost in expectation over the scenarios; operation is the expectation over the scenarios' weights,
with a share priced at the tail through the CVaR rows, which stand only where that share is positive.
A plain run feeds one scenario, one period, all-active masks and unit weights, and the model collapses
to the standard one. A security-constrained run copies each branch flow limit once per outage in an
`outage` set that a plain run leaves empty. Which snapshots an asset is active in, a scenario's weight,
and the outage factors are data prep.
