    Hi all,

    We have created a model including both on-grid and off-grid electricity production where transmission and distribution losses should only be applied to on-grid production. We solved that by putting the off-grid module above the T&D module. However, our T&D losses are unrealistically high and increase despite the fact that we have included a decrease in losses in our scenarios. We tried several things but can't understand where these high losses come from. Any advice as to where the problem lies would be much appreciated.

    Thank you in advance,
    Dina

    Hi Dina - 

    The losses in Current Accounts for the following branch Transformation\Transmission and Distribution\Processes\Electricity is set to 38%. Is this correct? You may want to change this value because this is why the losses are high.

    Thanks,
    Emily
