(production_group:energy_target)=
### energy_target
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: double. Unit: MWH.
</div>

Sum energy production target for time steps with energy_target_period_flag set to 1.


(production_group:energy_penalty_cost_up)=
### energy_penalty_cost_up
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: double. Unit: NOK/MWH.
</div>

Penalty cost for producing more energy than the target amount.


(production_group:energy_penalty_cost_down)=
### energy_penalty_cost_down
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: double. Unit: NOK/MWH.
</div>

Penalty cost for producing less energy than the target amount.


(production_group:energy_target_period_flag)=
### energy_target_period_flag
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: MWH.
</div>

Flag defining which time steps are part of the target energy production constraint.


(production_group:max_p_limit)=
### max_p_limit
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: MW.
</div>

The maximal power production limit for the sum of plants in the group.


(production_group:min_p_limit)=
### min_p_limit
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: MW.
</div>

The minimal power production limit for the sum of plants in the group.


(production_group:max_p_penalty_cost)=
### max_p_penalty_cost
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: NOK/MWH.
</div>

The penalty cost for breaking the maximum power production limit constraint. The default penalty cost is specified by the power_limit_penalty_cost on the global_settings object.


(production_group:min_p_penalty_cost)=
### min_p_penalty_cost
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: NOK/MWH.
</div>

The penalty cost for breaking the minimum power production limit constraint. The default penalty cost is specified by the power_limit_penalty_cost on the global_settings object.


(production_group:sum_production)=
### sum_production
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: MW.
</div>

The sum power production of all the plants connected to the group.


(production_group:min_p_penalty)=
### min_p_penalty
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: NOK.
</div>

The incurred penalty for breaking the minimum power production constraint.


(production_group:max_p_penalty)=
### max_p_penalty
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: NOK.
</div>

The incurred penalty for breaking the maximum power production constraint.


(production_group:energy_penalty_up)=
### energy_penalty_up
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: NOK.
</div>

The total penalty incurred when breaking the target energy constraint by generating more energy than the target.


(production_group:energy_penalty_down)=
### energy_penalty_down
<div class="attribute-meta">
Data type: timeseries. Unit: NOK.
</div>

The total penalty incurred when breaking the target energy constraint by generating less energy than the target.
