ValueCurve

Package: PowerCoreOpenAPIModels · Source: Core/common.json

A cost or fuel curve: function data plus a declaration of how to read its y axis. INPUT_OUTPUT reads y as the total f(x), INCREMENTAL as the marginal rate f'(x), and AVERAGE_RATE as the average f(x)/x; the three can express the same underlying function and are inter-convertible given initial_input. The TIME_SERIES_* variants are the time-varying equivalents. Which form to use follows the data source: bid stacks are incremental, total cost tables input-output, efficiency tables average rate.
