Python-based multi-zone unit commitment/economic dispatch model of CAISO and Mid-C markets coupled with "stochastic engine" for representing effects of multiple spatiotemporally correlated hydrometeorological processes on demand, hydropower and wind and solar power production.
Based on Python (Pyomo). Using for data processing.
