|Min\_Retired\_Cap\_MW |Minimum required discharge capacity retirements in the current model period. This field can be used to enforce lifetime retirements of existing capacity. Note that for co-located VRE-STOR resources, this value pertains to the grid connection (other minimum required discharge capacity retirements for different components of the resource can be found in the VRE-STOR dataframe). |
