Renewable Qualified

The 'Renewable Qualified' variable allows users to specify the percentage of a process's output that is considered renewable, ranging from 0% to 100%. While typically used for wind, solar, hydro, and biomass, the document warns that users can manually mark any process as renewable regardless of feedstock, and notes that some hydro and biomass projects may not meet specific Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) qualifications.

• The 'Renewable Qualified' variable is used in optimization-based scenarios to define the percentage of a process's output that qualifies as renewable, with a possible range from 0% to 100%.
• Users can designate any process as renewable regardless of the actual feedstock fuel used, although it is typically applied to wind, solar, hydro, and biomass.
• Certain biomass and hydro projects may not qualify for a Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS).
