Rung 14: two futures and a risk preference — capacity chosen once, dispatch per scenario¶
One rung of the PyPSA corpus: the file pypsa.yaml projected onto what this network builds, attached to that network, and held to what PyPSA solves it to.
✔ Verified against pypsa 1.3.0 — objective 9267.386667 on both sides; structure ✔ 12 constraints · 6 variables, name for name; size ✔ 87 rows · ✔ 37 columns · ✔ 148 nonzeros; duals ✔ 87 rows; objective only — the linopy oracle (
tests/linopy_lane) stops atOracleCannotBuildError: the linopy lane cannot build a quadratic constraint, and no reformulation of it is exact. The language accepts it and specsolve builds it, so this is a limit of the lane rather.

The model¶
The same model, as math
A plain n.optimize(), and its multi-period and stochastic classes, in one file. Every second-stage quantity spans a scenario (a future dispatch is chosen in) and every asset stands in the investment periods its build year and lifetime span. A parameter spans scenario exactly when PyPSA reads it per scenario. Capacity is chosen once, before the future is known, and paid once per active period at its cost in expectation over the scenarios; operation is the expectation over the scenarios' weights, with a share priced at the tail through the CVaR rows, which stand only where that share is positive. A plain run feeds one scenario, one period, all-active masks and unit weights, and the model collapses to the standard one. A security-constrained run copies each branch flow limit once per outage in an outage set that a plain run leaves empty. Which snapshots an asset is active in, a scenario's weight, and the outage factors are data prep.

| \(\mathrm{sgn}\) | Generator_sign over \(\mathcal{G}\) — the sign output enters its bus's balance with — PyPSA's sign, 1 unless given, -1 for a unit that draws power. PyPSA refuses one that differs by scenario (consistency.py:1187) |

| \(\eta\) | Link_efficiency over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{O}\) — share of the flow that arrives at an output port, PyPSA's efficiency, efficiency2, … read long — negative where that port consumes rather than delivers. Read at the snapshot the flow arrives, so a delayed port delivers at its arrival snapshot's efficiency (constraints.py:1522) |
| \(\mathrm{d}^{f}\) | Link_output_delay over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{O}\) — snapshots a port's delivery lags its link's flow — PyPSA's delay, delay2, … read long, in snapshot_weightings.generators units, which the file states as whole snapshots; zero for a port that delivers at once. Each scenario takes its own. PyPSA 1.3.0 groups the ports by delay over all scenarios and shifts each group in every one, so a delay that differs by scenario delivers the flow twice (constraints.py:1269-1276, PyPSA/PyPSA#1941) |
| \(\mathrm{cyc}^{f}\) | Link_output_cyclic_delay over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{O}\) — whether a delayed port's flow wraps from the end of its investment period — PyPSA's cyclic_delay, cyclic_delay2, …; where it does not, the flow still in transit at each period's first snapshots is lost.

| \(\mathrm{on}^{\mathrm{load}}\) | Load_active over \(\mathcal{D}\) — whether a load stands in the model — PyPSA's active. A load has no build year and no lifetime, so the flag holds in every snapshot. PyPSA refuses one that differs by scenario (consistency.py:1195) |
| \(\pi\) | scenario_weight over \(\Xi\) — PyPSA's scenario_weightings.weight — the probability of a future |
| \(\omega\) | CVaR_omega (scalar) — PyPSA's risk_preference['omega'] — the share of operating cost priced at the tail rather than in expectation; zero recovers the risk-neutral model |
| \(\alpha\) | CVaR_alpha (scalar) — PyPSA's risk_preference['alpha'] — the confidence level; the tail holds the other 1 - alpha of the probability |

| \(\mathrm{on}\) | Generator_active over \(\mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — whether a generator stands in a snapshot's period — PyPSA's active, from build year and lifetime, data prep |

| \(\underline{\mathrm{p}}^{\mathrm{nom}}\) | Generator_p_nom_min over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{G}\) — least nominal power an extendable generator may be built at |
| \(\overline{\mathrm{p}}^{\mathrm{nom}}\) | Generator_p_nom_max over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{G}\) — most nominal power an extendable generator may be built at |
| \(\mathrm{c}^{\mathrm{cap}}\) | Generator_capital_cost over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{G}\) — cost of one unit of nominal power — PyPSA's capital_cost, periodized as an annuity in data prep |
Variables¶
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| \(p\) | Generator_p over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — Generator-p — output of a generator in a snapshot |
| \(f\) | Link_p over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{L}\) — Link-p — PyPSA's p0, the flow measured at the Link_bus0 end: a positive value withdraws there and injects at every bus the link's output ports deliver to |
| \(P\) | Generator_p_nom_ext over \(\mathcal{G}\) — Generator-p_nom — nominal power where it is a decision; the parameter of the same PyPSA name carries the fixed regime |
| \(a\) | CVaR_a over \(\Xi\) — CVaR-a — how far a scenario's operating cost exceeds the tail's start; nothing where it does not |
| \(\theta\) | CVaR_theta (scalar) — CVaR-theta — where the tail starts, the value at risk |
| \(CVaR\) | CVaR (scalar) — CVaR — the tail's average cost, what the objective prices at omega |
Definitions¶
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| \(\mathit{scenario\_opex}\) | scenario_opex over \(\Xi\) — what a future costs to run — every operating term, weighted by the snapshot's hours and its period, before the scenario's own weight; a start and a stop cost what they cost, unweighted, as PyPSA adds them (optimize.py:414-429) |
| \(\mathit{total\_cost}\) | total_cost (scalar) — what the system costs — capacity once per active period at its expected cost over the scenarios, operation in expectation over the scenarios, and a share of it at the tail |
| \(\mathit{Bus\_injection}\) | Bus_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) — what every component puts into a bus, less what it takes out of it; PyPSA writes each term into the balance, and a load on its right-hand side |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_opex}\) | Generator_opex over \(\Xi\) |
| \(\mathit{Link\_opex}\) | Link_opex over \(\Xi\) |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_capex}\) | Generator_capex (scalar) |
| \(\mathit{risk\_weighted\_opex}\) | risk_weighted_opex (scalar) |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_injection}\) | Generator_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) |
| \(\mathit{Link\_injection}\) | Link_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) |
| \(\mathrm{Load\_injection}\) | Load_injection over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{N}\) |
| \(\mathit{Link\_output\_arrival}\) | Link_output_arrival over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{O}\) — what a link delivers to an output port at a snapshot — its flow delayed by the port's delay within its investment period, times the port's efficiency at the snapshot the flow arrives; where the port is cyclic_delay the delayed flow wraps from the period's end, and where it is not the flow still in transit at the period's first snapshots is lost. A port that does not delay (delay zero) delivers its flow unshifted, cyclic or not |
| \(\mathrm{Load\_demand}\) | Load_demand over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{D}\) — what a load draws from its bus's balance — its demand times its sign where it is active, nothing where it is not, since PyPSA drops an inactive load from the balance (constraints.py:1537-1538) |
\(t \ominus k\) denotes cyclic translation: index \(t-k\) taken modulo the size of the dimension (roll). Plain \(t-k\) (shift) has no wraparound — terms translated past the edge are simply absent.
\(t \boxminus_{v} k\) denotes translation with \(v\) standing where index \(t-k\) leaves the dimension (shift(edge=v)), so the row at that boundary is built and carries \(v\) rather than being dropped.
\(t \ominus^{\mathrm{relation}(t)} k\) denotes a translation counted inside the group a relation puts \(t\) in (shift(by=relation)), so a term never crosses out of its own group. The two modifiers take different slots — the group above, the fill below — so \(t \boxminus_{v}^{\mathrm{relation}(t)} k\) is both at once.

Link_output_arrival:
description: what a link delivers to an output port at a snapshot — its flow delayed by the port's
`delay` within its investment period, times the port's efficiency at the snapshot the flow arrives;
where the port is `cyclic_delay` the delayed flow wraps from the period's end, and where it is not
the flow still in transit at the period's first snapshots is lost. A port that does not delay (`delay`
zero) delivers its flow unshifted, cyclic or not

Load_demand:
description: what a load draws from its bus's balance — its demand times its sign where it is active,
nothing where it is not, since PyPSA drops an inactive load from the balance (`constraints.py:1537-1538`)
