Fuels\_data.csv: specify fuel type, CO2 emissions intensity, and time-series of fuel prices. 2. Network.csv: specify network topology, transmission fixed costs, capacity and loss parameters. 3. Demand\_data.csv: specify time-series of demand profiles for each model zone, weights for each time step, demand shedding costs, and optional time domain reduction parameters. 4. Generators\_variability.csv: specify time-series of capacity factor/availability for each resource. -5. Generators\_data.csv: specify cost and performance data for generation, storage and demand flexibility resources. +5. Resources folder: specify cost and performance data for generation, storage and demand flexibility resources. Additionally, the user may need to specify eight more **settings-specific** input files based on model configuration and type of scenarios of interest: 1. Operational\_reserves.csv: specify operational reserve requirements as a function of demand and renewables generation and penalty for not meeting these requirements.
