CHANGELOG for Microgrids.jl

v0.11.0

Jul 30, 2024

Cumulated changes of Spring/Summer 2024:

Implement economically consistent salvage value definition, see our report Pierre Haessig. Economic consistency of salvage value definitions. 2024. ⟨hal-04097092v2⟩
- Microgrid's Project description structure accepts a new salvage_type argument, with the default value being LinearSalvage which is the classical and previous behavior, but which can be changed to ConsistentSalvage
Add new smoothing parameter of the toplevel microgrid simulate function. It replaces and generalizes the relaxation parameter ε introduced in v0.10.2.
- Default value is NoSmoothing but can be set to any Smoothing instance
- the formerε parameter corresponds to the first field of the Smoothing structure, which is named transition.
- the 2nd parameter if the Smoothing structure is gain, which is 1.0 by default, but can be increased to heuristically compensate for the underapproximation when using a strictly positive transition value.
The structures for describing Microgrid projects (Microgrid, Project and all components such as Battery) are now:
- mutable (fields can be changed after creation)
- accept keyword arguments
- have sensible defaults for secondary parameters, matching Microgrids.py interface

Oct 13, 2023

add relaxation parameter ε to toplevel microgrid simulate function.
- this allow reproducing the optimization results from ou article: de Godoy Antunes, P. Haessig, C. Wang, and R. Chouhy Leborgne, “Optimal Microgrid Sizing using Gradient-based Algorithms with Automatic Differentiation,” ISGT Europe 2022, Novi Sad, Serbia, 2022. https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/ISGT-Europe54678.2022.9960498, Archived at https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-03370004
- but a reimplementation of these results in Microgrids.jl example folder is yet to be done.
