Activity limit and production share parameters

These parameters restrict the activity of technologies and the shares of production met by particular technologies or renewable sources.

Maximum production share

For the specified region, fuel, and year, maximum fraction of production (excluding production from storage) that may be delivered by the indicated technology.

Scenario database

Table: MaxShareProduction

Minimum production share

For the specified region, fuel, and year, minimum fraction of production (excluding production from storage) that must be delivered by the indicated technology.

Scenario database

Table: MinShareProduction

Renewable energy minimum production target (by region)

For the specified region, fuel, and year, fraction of production that must be from renewable sources. The renewability of production is determined by RETagTechnology: this parameter defines what fraction of a technology's production counts as renewable.

Table: REMinProductionTarget

Renewable energy minimum production target (by region group)

For the specified region group, fuel, and year, fraction of production that must be from renewable sources. The renewability of production is determined by RETagTechnology: this parameter defines what fraction of a technology's production counts as renewable.

Total technology annual activity lower limit

Minimum nominal energy produced by a technology in a year. Nominal energy is calculated by multiplying dispatched capacity by the length of time it is dispatched. Only specify this parameter if you want to enforce a particular limit (other than 0, which NEMO assumes by default).

Table: TotalTechnologyAnnualActivityLowerLimit

Total technology annual activity upper limit

Maximum nominal energy produced by a technology in a year. Nominal energy is calculated by multiplying dispatched capacity by the length of time it is dispatched. Only specify this parameter if you want to enforce a particular limit.

Table: TotalTechnologyAnnualActivityUpperLimit

Total technology model period activity lower limit

Minimum nominal energy produced by a technology over the modeling period (i.e., the period bounded by the first and last years defined in the scenario database). Nominal energy is calculated by multiplying dispatched capacity by the length of time it is dispatched. Only specify this parameter if you want to enforce a particular limit (other than 0, which NEMO assumes by default).

Scenario database

Table: TotalTechnologyModelPeriodActivityLowerLimit

Total technology model period activity upper limit

Maximum nominal energy produced by a technology over the modeling period (i.e., the period bounded by the first and last years defined in the scenario database). Nominal energy is calculated by multiplying dispatched capacity by the length of time it is dispatched. Only specify this parameter if you want to enforce a particular limit.
