PowNet-Thailand v1.3

Changes since v1.1

• Fix: Logical Constraints are modified to fix a bug that used to initialize the binary decision variables (on and switch) for each horizon (e.g., 24 hours)
• Fix: Ramp Rate Constraints are modified to fix ramping constraints
• Fix: Up/Down Time Constraints are modified to fix minUp/minDown constraint violation within the same horizon. Note that the constraint violation across horizon is not fixed, but we checked that the violation is minimal in a run
• Enhancement: Derate factors of dispatchable units are now hourly inputs and are provided in separate csv files saved as ‘deratef_xxxx’, where ‘xxxx’ denotes the simulation year
• Enhancement: Options for applying time limit to optimization is added
• See issues 7, 8, and 9 at https://github.com/kamal0013/PowNet/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed
