    I need to add cost of new transmission and distribution lines, but I see not space for it in Transformation branch. What do I do if I have to add cost of new transmission lines for importing electricity? In the current scenario, there is no import. In the future, import will be needed.

    Dear Kshitiz,
    To add cost of transmission and distribution in your transformation module, go to properties of Transmission and Distribution module you have created and Check the Costs parameter under Types of data to include section. Then you will be able to add module cost for transformation and distribution as an externally calculated total cost or as a function of some parameters within your model. In addition, you also can assign Variable operation and maintenance cost for each technology under processes.
