Generation Plant Cost of Operations and Cycling Optimization (COCO) Model 
*************************************************************************

Project Objectives
==================
COCO project will develop a model to accurately estimate the cost of cycling large coal plants so that they can be operated efficiently as part of a comprehensive strategy for generation planning and dispatch.

Technical Scope Summary
=======================
PNNL work scope is divided into two tasks:

1. Support data-driven modeling of the cycling cost by developing improved machine learning models and a method to optimize boiler cycling for cost efficiency,

2. Modeling integration and testing. The specific details of each task are provided below.
