Added

  • Reservoir hydropower modelling overhaul (#4) — hydroelectric generators
    are now dispatched against an explicit water-energy budget in both the
    operational dispatch and the capacity-expansion master, instead of being
    treated as firm capacity. Five behaviours, each independently optional and
    fully wired into the Studio GUI (en/es/ja):
    • Energy budget — water balance (inflow, turbining, pumping, spillage,
      evaporation) modelled in the master, correcting hydro that was previously
      over-credited as firm MW.
    • Minimum environmental flow — a mandatory ecological release floor.
    • Seasonal storage — reservoir level chained chronologically across
      representative periods (TSAM inter-period linking), so water banked in a wet
      season is available in a later dry one.
    • Hydraulic cascade — an upstream reservoir's release feeds a downstream
      reservoir, with an optional travel delay.
    • Head dependence — a depleted reservoir delivers less peak power, via a
      linear (LP-friendly) level-dependent power limit.

Fixed

  • Deleting a system left orphan inter-system links (#5) — links whose
    endpoints referenced a deleted system survived in the project and were
    silently dropped by the runner. Deletion now removes every link touching the
    system.
  • Grid Builder country detection (#6) — step 3 reverse-geocoded the
    bounding-box centroid via Nominatim, folding territories into their sovereign
    state (Puerto Rico to United States), finding only one country per region
    (Haiti was missed), and returning localized names. Detection is now offline
    and territory-aware: grid nodes are tested against bundled country polygons,
    surfacing every country the region intersects with correct ISO3 codes.

Documentation

  • New reservoir-hydropower formulation page documenting the water balance and
    all five behaviours as LP constraints; reservoir config/GUI fields and the
    constraint catalogue updated.
  • README links the companion repositories and uses Harvey-ball icons in the
    feature comparison table.
