What’s new in version 0.4.0

Version available since 05 01 2021

Bug fixed

  • PuLP library version changed from >=1.6.10 to 2.1: changed imports in general.optimisation.model, as well as requirements.txt, setup.py and associated docs.

New functionalities

Energy

Units

  • e_max and e_min parameters now add technical constraints (set_e_min and set_e_max) when set to a value.

  • e_tot upper bound is now set as the p_max value times the number of hours over the studied time period. The lower bound is either set to 0, or minus the upper bound if the unit is a storage unit.

  • the add methods put in place with parameters are now _add methods.

  • set_e_max constraint changed to set_e_max_period (respectively e_min)

Consumption Units

  • add imaginary parameter in SeveralConsumptionUnit

Production Units

  • add new parameters : particle_emission (quantity) and rr_energy (True/False renewable and recovery energy unit)

  • add imaginary parameter in SeveralProductionUnit

Energy Nodes

  • add get_input_poles and get_output_poles

General

Model

  • add lpfics (Linear Programming : Find Incompatible Constraint Sets) to

help finding incompatible constraint sets in OMEGAlpes projects

Utils

  • add plot_2D_pareto method

Actors

Update the Actor structure - move Prosumer class into prosumer_actors.py - move Supplier class into supplier_actors.py

Project Developer Actors

  • create a ProjectDeveloper class as a new type of actor

Operator Actor

  • add grid_operator_actors.py

  • add prosumer_actors.py

  • add supplier_actors.py

Consumer Actor

  • use add_power_consumption_total_minimum or add_power_consumption_by_unit_minimum instead of add_power_consumption_minimum

  • use add_power_consumption_total_maximum or add_power_consumption_by_unit_maximum instead of add_power_consumption_maximum

Producer Actor

  • use add_power_production_total_minimum or add_power_production_by_unit_minimum instead of add_power_production_minimum

  • use add_power_production_total_maximum or add_power_production_by_unit_maximum instead of add_power_production_maximum

  • add add_temporary_stop

Deprecated

  • the name of the function set_operating_time_range changed to add_operating_time_range for code consistency. set_operating_time_range is now deprecated.

Energy

Consumption Units

  • delete SeveralImaginaryConsumptionUnit (use imaginary parameter in SeveralConsumptionUnit instead)

Production Units

  • delete SeveralImaginaryProductionUnit (use imaginary parameter in SeveralProductionUnit instead)

Actors

Consumer Actor

  • add_power_consumption_minimum (replaced by add_power_consumption_total_minimum)

  • add_power_consumption_maximum (replaced by add_power_consumption_total_maximum)

Producer Actor

  • add_power_production_minimum (replaced by add_power_production_total_minimum)

  • add_power_production_maximum (replaced by add_power_production_total_minimum)
