(busbar:load)=
### load
Load at the busbar (xUnit: NO_UNIT, yUnit: MW)


(busbar:ptdf)=
### ptdf

(busbar:energy_price)=
### energy_price
Dual value for the energy balance constraint at the busbar (xUnit: NO_UNIT, yUnit: NOK/MWH)


(busbar:power_deficit)=
### power_deficit
Power added to the busbar power balance to cover deficit of energy (xUnit: NO_UNIT, yUnit: MWH)


(busbar:power_excess)=
### power_excess
