InterruptiblePowerLoad

Package: PowerOperationsOpenAPIModels · Source: Operations/StaticInjection/InterruptiblePowerLoad.json

A static power load that can be compensated for temporary or continuous interruptions to its requested demand.

These loads are most commonly used for operational optimizations and can be used to model, for example, large commercial and industrial customers enrolled in demand response programs. This load has a target demand profile (set by a max_active_power time series for an operational simulation) that can be reduced to satisfy other system needs. For simpler loads without an operating cost for demand response, see PowerLoad.

Properties

Property	Type	Required	Unit	Description
id	integer	yes	—	Unique integer identifier for this component.
name	string	yes	—	Name of the component. Components of the same type (e.g., PowerLoad) must have unique names, but components of different types (e.g., PowerLoad and ACBus) can have the same name.
available	boolean	yes	—	Indicator of whether the component is connected and online (true) or disconnected, offline, or down (false). Unavailable components are excluded during simulations.
bus	integer	yes	—	ID of the bus that this component is connected to.
active_power	number	yes	MW / pu (by power_units)	Initial steady state active power demand. Units: per power_units — NATURAL_UNITS: MW, COMPONENT_BASE: pu .
reactive_power	number	yes	MVAr / pu (by power_units)	Initial steady state reactive power demand. Units: per power_units — NATURAL_UNITS: MVAr, COMPONENT_BASE: pu .
max_active_power	number	yes	MW / pu (by power_units)	Maximum active power that this load can demand. Units: per power_units — NATURAL_UNITS: MW, COMPONENT_BASE: pu .
max_reactive_power	number	yes	MVAr / pu (by power_units)	Maximum reactive power that this load can demand. Units: per power_units — NATURAL_UNITS: MVAr, COMPONENT_BASE: pu .
base_power	number	yes	MVA	Base power of the unit for per unitization. Units: MVA.
power_units	string (UnitSystem)	yes	—	Unit basis for this component’s power-family fields (active/reactive/apparent power, ratings, limits, ramp rates). COMPONENT_BASE: per unit on this component’s own base_power. NATURAL_UNITS: the field’s physical unit.
operation_cost	LoadCost or MarketBidCost or MarketBidTimeSeriesCost or ImportExportTimeSeriesCost	yes	—	Operational cost of interrupting load. or MarketBidCost
conformity	string (LoadConformity)	—	—	Indicates whether the specified load is conforming or non-conforming.
dynamic_injector	integer or null	—	—	ID of the corresponding dynamic injection device, if any.
