Wind Power

Attribute	Unit	Data type	Description
deployment	–	bool	If set to ‘true’, the technology will be considered in the energy system model (this does not necessarily mean it will be used). Only relevant for optimisation.
kWp_max	kW	float	Kilowatt Peak: Maximum power output of wind power system.
kWp_max_systemwide		float
co2_intensity	kg CO2/kWh	float	Carbon-dioxide intensity of technology output (annual average value).
lifetime	years	int	Expected lifetime of technology before replacement is required.
maintenance_cost	CHF/kWp/year	float
capex_CHFpkWp	CHF/kWp	float	CAPEX cost of technology per unit of capacity.
interest_rate	–	float	Interest rate for computing levelised costs (if required).
potential_integration_factor	–	float	Used for scenario ‘wind_power_integration’. This factor specifies the fraction of additional wind power potential to be implemented. The additional wind power potential is based on a a simulation done by Wind-Topo.
virtual_export_tariff	CHF/kWh	float	virtual export tarriff to prefer internal usage of the electricity
export_subsidy	CHF/kWh	float	subsidy to make export more likely (and prevent cycling of storages to curtail energy)
wind_power_installed_allocation	–	str	Decision on whether the installed wind power will be counted towards the local electricity generation or towards the national electricity mix. Options: ‘national’, ‘local’
v_e_wp_national_recalc	–	bool	If set to ‘true, recalculation of hourly national wind power profile of installed capacity will be carried out; default should be ‘false’, as this is only required when new wind power plants have been installed.
