Transmission and other losses

Flat fractions of the exported power

Inputs used: Fixed transmission loss, Other AC loss, Model the transmission and other losses

What it is

Two flat losses act on the exported power near the injection point. The fixed transmission loss is a share of the export set by a grid agreement or by a metering point further away. The other AC loss is a share for anything the other steps do not cover. Each has its own row in the loss diagram.

The AC side from the inverters to the grid, and where each loss row is counted
