est_turbine_cost was created by ivan1975
Hi,

I am trying by LK code simulate capital cost for several turbines.
Two questions:
1) ¿What is mean 'est_turbine_cost' (LK variable)?.
2) ¿How can I emulate button "Estimate turbine cost now" usign LK code? (See attcahment)

Thanks.

Hi Ivan,

I think your question is about the Wind model.

The 'est_turbine_cost' is an unused variable, so you should ignore it.

Here is an example script that shows how to run the LandBOSSE BOS cost model from LK.
// enable the LandBOSSE model
set('en_landbosse',1);

// check if LandBOSSE Python model is installed, install it if not
outln( 'Checking LandBOSSE installation' );

// array of test values for distance between wind farm and interconnection point
interconnect_distances = [ 5, 100 ]; // miles

for (i=0; i<#interconnect_distances; i++ )
{

    // set LandBOSSE input
    set('distance_to_interconnect_mi', interconnect_distances[i] );

    // run LandBOSSE
    outln( 'Running BOS cost model for case ' + i );
    run_landbosse();

    // get LandBOSSE output
    bos_cost = get('total_bos_cost_per_capacity'); // $/kW
    
    // set SAM input
    set( 'bos_cost_per_kw' , bos_cost ); // $/kW
    
    // run SAM
    outln( 'Running SAM simulation for case ' + i );
    simulate();
    
    // store results in a table
    results{'bos_cost'}[i] = bos_cost;
    results{'npv'}[i] = get('project_return_aftertax_npv'); // $
}

// display results
outln( results );


Best regards,
Paul.
