Thanks for the quick response Antti.
Not sure why the link wasn't working for me before but seems to be now--very helpful! I've attached the relevant process information and control panel settings. Does that help?
On a related note, I'm curious how the same process works for technologies where I *have* specified a lead time (e.g. nuclear and hydro). My understanding is that ILED is essentially the equivalent of construction lead time i.e. the gap between when an investment decision is made and the capacity becomes available. Over this period, investment during construction (IDC) accrues based on whatever you set as the NCAP_DRATE. Will this IDC show up in LUMPINV the first year capacity is available? E.g. for a technology with an ILED of -8, if I postpone the technology availability to a certain start year e.g. 2020, is the investment decision made in 2012, with LUMPINV in 2020 reflecting IDC as well as NCAP_COST * VAR_NCAP?
