Companies
The Company Window is used to:
- Create new Companies
- Maintain Company details
- Assign Generator ownership, in whole or in part, to Companies
- Specify Company retail load by Node
- Model Company hedge contracts
The Company Window is comprised of four distinct parts:
- Company details box
- Generators tab
- Retail load tab
- Hedges tab
Warning: Once created a Company Resource is included in a Run by attaching a Connections Resource containing the Company to the Run through the 'Run Window'. (Companies are attached to a Connections Resource via the 'Connections Window'). Any Generators defined in the attached Company Resource MUST also appear in the list of Generators in the Connections Resource or an error message will be generated at run time.
