AggregateTransportTechnology
Package: PowerInvestmentsOpenAPIModels · Source: Investments/Technologies/AggregateTransportTechnology.json
An aggregated representation of a transmission interchange between two regions. Capacity is added in discrete units of unit_size, priced by a capital cost curve, and derated by a proportional line loss.
