1) My question was whether you checked the MOST results for the cases that run
but do not include any startup or shutdown of units to confirm that the total
generation is tracking the load profile you are attempting to specify. If there
is an error somewhere in the inputs that prevents the load profile being
applied as expected, it would result in a fixed commitment schedule like this.
2) That means “infeasible or unbounded”.
