Describe the workflow you want to enable
I wish incompatibility between generator Pmins and transmission network limits could be reconciled using penalized generation dumping.
Describe your proposed implementation
When this feature is active, a new set of variables is introduced, over the sets of generators and time periods. This new set of variables would be added to the power balance constraint, consuming power, and a new constraint would be added such that the generation dumping could never be larger than the generation of the corresponding generators. These variables would also be added to the objective function with a large penalty.
Similar to how we work with load shedding, these variables may only need to be active during part of the year (e.g. due to hydro generation profiles), so we could build the model first with no load shedding, then with load shedding if the model isn't feasible, then with generation shedding if the model still isn't feasible; conversely, if generation shedding hasn't been used in several intervals we could remove it, then do the same for load shedding.
