The model¶
The same model, as math
The spec of the model a plain n.optimize() builds, in one file. Every declaration is named Component_attribute after the PyPSA statement it stands for, and each constraint's description opens with the linopy name PyPSA gives that row, so the two can be read side by side. PyPSA's regimes — extendable, committable — are data columns and become where: masks. Bounds are the explicit rows PyPSA writes, so their duals are row duals. Parameters no PyPSA table carries verbatim are computed in data prep and say so in their description.

Definitions¶
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| \(\mathit{Generator\_previous\_p}\) | Generator_previous_p over \(\mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — the output a generator carries into a snapshot — nothing at the start of the horizon, which is why a unit that came in running carries no ramp row there |
| \(\mathit{Generator\_ramp\_up\_allowance}\) | Generator_ramp_up_allowance over \(\mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{G}\) — how far a generator may raise output between two snapshots — its ramp limit of the build while it stays on, plus its start-up ramp in the snapshot it turns on |

| \(\mathit{StorageUnit\_charge\_carried\_in}\) | StorageUnit_charge_carried_in over \(\mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{S}\) — the charge a unit opens a snapshot with — its last snapshot's less standing loss where it is cyclic, the given initial charge at the start of the horizon, which no standing loss has touched yet, and the previous snapshot's less standing loss otherwise |
| \(\mathit{Store\_energy\_carried\_in}\) | Store_energy_carried_in over \(\mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{V}\) — the energy a store opens a snapshot with — its last snapshot's less standing loss where it is cyclic, the given initial energy at the start of the horizon, which no standing loss has touched yet, and the previous snapshot's less standing loss otherwise |
| \(\mathit{Link\_output\_arrival}\) | Link_output_arrival over \(\mathcal{T} \times \mathcal{O}\) — what a link delivers to an output port at a snapshot — its flow after the port's efficiency, delayed by the port's delay; where the port is cyclic_delay the delayed flow wraps from the horizon's end, and where it is not the flow still in transit at the first snapshots is lost. A port that does not delay (delay zero) delivers its flow unshifted, cyclic or not |
| \(\mathit{transmission\_volume\_expansion}\) | transmission_volume_expansion over \(\mathcal{B}\) — what a transmission_volume_expansion_limit row totals — length times the chosen build of the row's branches |

\(t \ominus k\) 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.
\(\mathrm{pos}(t)\) denotes where index \(t\) sits along its dimension's own order — the order shift steps along, not the order labels sort in — counted from \(0\). The index itself stays the coordinate, so \(t\) compares against labels and \(\mathrm{pos}(t)\) against positions.

description: The spec of the model a plain `n.optimize()` builds, in one file. Every declaration is named
`Component_attribute` after the PyPSA statement it stands for, and each constraint's description opens
with the linopy name PyPSA gives that row, so the two can be read side by side. PyPSA's regimes — extendable,
committable — are data columns and become `where:` masks. Bounds are the explicit rows PyPSA writes,
so their duals are row duals. Parameters no PyPSA table carries verbatim are computed in data prep and
say so in their description.
