Supplier

To add a new Supplier component, user can either use the Market menu or the quick-access button. When user double clicks on the item, its properties window should pop up (called Supplier editor). This window allows users to enter supplier’s data such as its identification name, economic information, and the generating units that this supplier owns. To assign generators to this supplier, press the Select Units button that displays a window with all the generators defined in the Network Editor.

In the example shown in Figure 35, the supplier AES_Gener_S.A appears. associated with the Alfalfal, Renca, Maitenes, among others.

By double clicking on it, user can access the properties of the Consumer component, provide a name and choose the related Load components (which were already entered through the Network Editor) corresponding to this client.
