- add operating reserve requirement inputs, outputs, and constraints based on load and PV generation
- add minimum load met percent input and constraint
- add generator replacement year and cost (for off-grid and on-grid)
- add off-grid additional annual costs (tax deductible) and upfront capital costs (depreciable via straight line depreciation)
