Constructor Detail

AbstractCustomer

public AbstractCustomer(org.powertac.common.CustomerInfo customer)

Abstract Customer constructor. It takes the customerInfo as an input. It creates the autowiring required using the Spring Application Context, it creates the new Abstract Customer based on the customerInfo given, creates a new random number generator and adds the newly created customer in the CustomerRepo.

subscribe

public void subscribe(org.powertac.common.Tariff tariff,
                      int customerCount)

Subscribing a certain population amount to a certain subscription

unsubscribe

public void unsubscribe(TariffSubscription subscription,
                        int customerCount)

Unsubscribing a certain population amount from a certain subscription

consumePower

public void consumePower()

The first implementation of the power consumption function. I utilized the mean consumption of a neighborhood of households with a random variable
