    Dear Sir,
    I have entered a charcoal production in my transformation section in the current account. Though I entered all some data in the process share, process efficiency and especially in the historical production, the results in the reference account only display the base year of my model which is 2015. I do not understand. I probably did something wrong. Please have a look at the pictures. Thank you for your help

    Hi Yessoh -

    Based on your screenshots, if I were to guess I think that your power plants are not being dispatched correctly. Note that LEAP ignores the Historical Production variable in and after the First Simulation Year, when it uses the Dispatch Rule variable to decide how to operate the plants. If you have not touched these variables, it is likely that your Dispatch Rule is set to PercentShare and the Process Share variable is set to zero (the default values) - which means your plants would be dispatched to meet zero percent of the module requirements.

    Hope this helps,
    Taylor

    Hello Taylor,
    Thank you so much for your reply. Actually, it still does not work. The process share is not set to zero (cf screenshot). The dispatch rule is set to percent share. But I can visualize the results for the study period. Only the year 2015 appears.

    Hi Yessoh -

    Other things to check:
    1. Is there sufficient capacity?
    2. Is that capacity available, according to the Maximum Availability variable?
    3. Are there Transformation: Requirements that the module is trying to meet in years 2016 and beyond?
