create-cluster: Create a cluster

Description

Antares API OK (thermal clusters only)

Create a new thermal or RES (renewable energy source) cluster.

Usage

createCluster(
  area,
  cluster_name,
  group = "Other",
  ...,
  time_series = NULL,
  prepro_data = NULL,
  prepro_modulation = NULL,
  add_prefix = TRUE,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  opts = antaresRead::simOptions()
)
createClusterRES(
  area,
  cluster_name,
  group = "Other RES 1",
  ...,
  time_series = NULL,
  add_prefix = TRUE,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  opts = antaresRead::simOptions()
)

Value

An updated list containing various information about the simulation.

Arguments

area

The area where to create the cluster.

cluster_name

Name for the cluster, it will prefixed by area name, unless you set add_prefix = FALSE.

group

Group of the cluster, depends on cluster type:

  • thermal cluster, one of: Gas, Hard coal, Lignite, Mixed fuel, Nuclear, Oil, Other, Other 2, Other 3, Other 4.

  • renewable cluster, one of: Wind Onshore, Wind Offshore, Solar Thermal, Solar PV, Solar Rooftop, Other RES 1, Other RES 2, Other RES 3, Other RES 4.

...

Parameters to write in the Ini file. Careful! Some parameters must be set as integers to avoid warnings in Antares, for example, to set unitcount, you'll have to use unitcount = 1L.

time_series

the "ready-made" 8760-hour time-series available for simulation purposes.

prepro_data

Pre-process data, a data.frame or matrix, default is a matrix with 365 rows and 6 columns.

prepro_modulation

Pre-process modulation, a data.frame or matrix, if specified, must have 8760 rows and 1 or 4 columns.

add_prefix

If TRUE (the default), cluster_name will be prefixed by area name.

overwrite

Logical, overwrite the cluster or not.

opts

List of simulation parameters returned by the function antaresRead::setSimulationPath()
