    Hi guys,
    I would like to add a parent scenario to one of its inheriting scenarios as shown in the image below but I can not perform this action. Please HELP.

    Hi Daniel -

    I'm not certain how the scenario configuration in your screenshot was first established. LEAP should disallow you from adding the Energy Conservation scenario as both a child and a parent of the BAU scenario, since this does not make logical sense. My guess is that regardless of how this happened, LEAP is detecting the error and as a result you cannot modify scenarios further.

    I would recommend deleting EC and REN scenarios, and then re-adding them.

    Can you let us know which version of LEAP you're using?

    Thank you again for your response. I am using the latest version but my friend who did that used the old version.

    Quick question, can we type expressions in LEAP, say, ''share of natural gas in electricity generation < 30% by 2030'' ?

    Hi Daniel,

    Are you using the Process Share dispatch rule for the electricity generation module? If so, you can enter one of the following expression in the Process Share variable:

    • For a gradual increase to 30% natural gas shares in 2030 use the following expression: Interp(2030, 30)
    • For a sudden change to 30% natural gas in 2030 use the following expression: Step(2030, 30)
    There are a number of ways to enter complex expressions, similar to Excel. To learn more about the different functions that could be used in LEAP, refer to the following help page for more information:

    Hope this helps!
