The Issue

The old implementation of operational reserves mis-identifies any generators with p_max_pu as a renewable. In connection to #316, I need to find a better way to designate which resources can commit to reserves.

Research direction

Start with workflow/scripts/solve_network.py around lines 760-772 and review the context of issue #316. Trace how generators with p_max_pu are classified for operational reserves, then define and validate a resource designation that does not treat every such generator as renewable.
