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 a risk preference is set. 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.

\(\eta\) 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:1498)

\(\mathrm{cyc}^{f}\) Link_output_cyclic_delay over \(\mathcal{O}\) — 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.

Read at the snapshot the transfer arrives, so a delayed port transfers at its arrival snapshot's rate (constraints.py:1498)
\(\mathrm{d}^{z}\) Process_output_delay over \(\mathcal{R}\) — snapshots a port's transfer lags its process's internal power — PyPSA's delay0, delay1, … read long, divided by the snapshot_weightings.generators value and rounded up in data prep; zero for a port that transfers at once. A port has the same delay in every scenario, as a link's port has
\(\mathrm{cyc}^{z}\) Process_output_cyclic_delay over \(\mathcal{R}\) — whether a delayed port's transfer wraps from the end of its investment period — PyPSA's cyclic_delay0, cyclic_delay1, …; where it does not, the energy still in transit at each period's first snapshots is lost.

\(\mathrm{rd}^{z}\) Process_ramp_limit_down over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{J}\), \(0\) where the data has no row — most a process may lower its internal power between snapshots, per unit of nominal power; no value means no limit — read at the later of the two snapshots, so the limit may change over time
\(\mathrm{z}^{\mathrm{set}}\) Process_p_set over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{J}\), \(0\) where the data has no row — a given internal power schedule; a process without one has no row here

\(\mathrm{z}^{\mathrm{nom,set}}\) Process_p_nom_set over \(\mathcal{J}\), \(0\) where the data has no row — a given nominal power for an extendable process; one without a value has no row here

\(\mathrm{z}^{0}\) Process_p_init over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{J}\), \(0\) where the data has no row — the internal power a process brought into the horizon — PyPSA's p_init, read only where the process came in running; no value means it is unknown, so the process carries no ramp row at the first snapshot
\(\mathrm{z}^{\mathrm{mod}}\) Process_p_nom_mod over \(\mathcal{J}\), absent where the data has no row — the module size a build comes in whole numbers of; no value means the build is continuous

\(\mathrm{sgn}^{\mathrm{load}}\) Load_sign over \(\mathcal{D}\) — the sign a load's demand enters its bus's balance with — PyPSA's sign, -1 unless given, 1 for a load that feeds its bus. PyPSA refuses one that differs by scenario (constants.py:43)
\(\mathrm{on}^{\mathrm{load}}\) 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 (constants.py:51)

\(\mathrm{w}^{y}\) period_weight_objective over \(\mathcal{Y}\) — PyPSA's investment_period_weightings.objective — what a period's cost weighs; PyPSA reads it only under multi_investment_periods, so data prep feeds one otherwise, whatever the column holds (optimize.py:205-207, :264-266)
\(\mathrm{on}\) 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

\(\mathrm{act}^{z}\) Process_active_asset over \(\mathcal{J}\) — whether a process is one of PyPSA's active_assets — its active flag alone, without build year and lifetime, so a unit that stands in no snapshot of the horizon still counts. PyPSA refuses one that differs by scenario (constants.py:51)
\(\mathrm{W}^{z}\) Process_capital_weight over \(\mathcal{J}\) — the sum of period weights a process stands in — PyPSA's active * period_weighting, summed, data prep

\(f\) 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
\(z\) Process_p over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{J}\) — Process-p — PyPSA's internal power p: a positive value drives every port at its own rate, withdrawing where the rate is negative and injecting where it is positive
\(Z\) Process_p_nom_ext over \(\mathcal{J}\) — Process-p_nom — nominal internal power where it is a decision, for a process that is active; the parameter of the same PyPSA name carries the fixed regime

\(\mathit{Process\_previous\_status}\) Process_previous_status over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{J}\) — the commitment state a process carries into a snapshot — off at the first snapshot it stands in past the first of the horizon, as PyPSA reads a status it did not build (constraints.py:298), and the state carried over otherwise
\(\mathit{Process\_status\_carried\_over}\) Process_status_carried_over over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{J}\) — the state a process carries over into a snapshot — the state it brought into the horizon at the first, the previous snapshot's after that
\(\mathit{Process\_previous\_p}\) Process_previous_p over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{J}\) — the internal power a process carries into a snapshot — at the first, the p_init it brought in where it came in running and nothing where it came in off; the previous snapshot's after that

\(\mathit{Process\_ramp\_down\_allowance}\) Process_ramp_down_allowance over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{J}\) — how far a process may lower internal power between two snapshots — its ramp limit of the build while it stays on, plus its shut-down ramp in the snapshot it turns off
\(\mathit{Link\_output\_arrival}\) 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
\(\mathit{Process\_output\_arrival}\) Process_output_arrival over \(\Xi \times \mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{R}\) — what a process transfers at a port at a snapshot — its internal power delayed by the port's delay within its investment period, times the port's rate at the snapshot the transfer arrives; where the port is cyclic_delay the delayed transfer wraps from the period's end, and where it is not the energy still in transit at the period's first snapshots is lost.

\(\mathit{Process\_opex}\) Process_opex over \(\Xi\)
\(\mathit{scenario\_opex}\) 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:415-432)
\(\mathit{Process\_capex}\) Process_capex (scalar)
\(\mathit{risk\_weighted\_opex}\) risk_weighted_opex (scalar)
\(\mathit{total\_cost}\) 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
\(\mathrm{Load\_demand}\) 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:1513-1514)
\(\mathit{Generator\_injection}\) Generator_injection over \(\mathcal{N} \times \Xi \times \mathcal{T}\)
\(\mathit{Link\_injection}\) Link_injection over \(\mathcal{N} \times \Xi \times \mathcal{T}\)

The spec, differential/pypsa/rungs/rung_17_process.yaml — the file projected onto what this rung builds:

description: 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
  `period`s 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 a risk preference is set.
  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.
