Description

Operational reserve constraint for sector-coupling network

The current constraint for operational reserve margin only works for electricity only networks. This could be extended for the sector-coupling networks or there should be at least a warning that the constraint does not work as intended with a sector-coupled network.

Research direction

Read scripts/solve_network.py around lines 387-454, starting with the operational reserve margin constraint and how it assumes an electricity-only network. Compare its behavior for sector-coupled networks; done means the constraint works as intended there or a warning clearly reports that it does not.
