Type Description
CHP

Combined heat and power supply, used not only as a source of electric energy but also as a heating source for the building. It may therefore be not only part of an electrical system but also of a heating system.

STANDALONE

Electrical generator which does not include its source of kinetic energy, that is, a motor, engine, or turbine are all modeled separately.

User-defined type.

NOTDEFINED

Undefined type.
