Hi Rahmat,

You would need to add that power plant to your list of processes in an electricity generation module (under the Transformation branches).

Make sure you specify that the plant initially has zero capacity and then specify a step function for the Exogenous Capacity variable to indicate that the plant becomes available in 2010. Like this:

Step(2000, 0, 2010, 450)

You will also need to specify other technical characteristics for the process including availability, efficiency (normally 100% for hydro), merit order, etc.

Best,

Charlie
