Microgrids.jl

Cumulated changes of Spring/Summer 2024:

• Implement economically consistent salvage value definition, see our report Pierre Haessig. Economic consistency of salvage value definitions. 2024. ⟨hal-04097092v2⟩
  • Microgrid's Project description structure accepts a new salvage_type argument, with the default value being LinearSalvage which is the classical and previous behavior, but which can be changed to ConsistentSalvage
• Add new smoothing parameter of the toplevel microgrid simulate function. It replaces and generalizes the relaxation parameter ε introduced in v0.10.2.
  • Default value is NoSmoothing but can be set to any Smoothing instance
  • the formerε parameter corresponds to the first field of the Smoothing structure, which is named transition.
  • the 2nd parameter if the Smoothing structure is gain, which is 1.0 by default, but can be increased to heuristically compensate for the underapproximation when using a strictly positive transition value.
• The structures for describing Microgrid projects (Microgrid, Project and all components such as Battery) are now:
  • mutable (fields can be changed after creation)
  • accept keyword arguments
  • have sensible defaults for secondary parameters, matching Microgrids.py interface

• add relaxation parameter ε to toplevel microgrid simulate function.

Same as v0.10.0 + minor fixes to performance benchmark and README

Microgrids.jl updated to:

• match Microgrids.py interface (same field names in data structure)
• add wind power model
• improved notebook examples, with both simulation and optimization

Now Microgrids.jl should be installable with ] add Microgrids!
