class GenericStorage(Node):
    r"""
    Component `GenericStorage` to model with basic characteristics of storages.

    The GenericStorage is designed for one input and one output.

    Parameters
    ----------
    nominal_capacity : numeric, :math:`E_{nom}` or
            :class:`oemof.solph.options.Investment` object
        Absolute nominal capacity of the storage, fixed value or
        object describing parameter of investment optimisations.
    invest_relation_input_capacity : numeric (iterable or scalar) or None, :math:`r_{cap,in}`
        Ratio between the investment variable of the input Flow and the
        investment variable of the storage:
        :math:`\dot{E}_{in,invest} = E_{invest} \cdot r_{cap,in}`
    invest_relation_output_capacity : numeric (iterable or scalar) or None, :math:`r_{cap,out}`
        Ratio between the investment variable of the output Flow and the
        investment variable of the storage:
        :math:`\dot{E}_{out,invest} = E_{invest} \cdot r_{cap,out}`
    invest_relation_input_output : numeric (iterable or scalar) or None, :math:`r_{in,out}`
        Ratio between the investment variable of the output Flow and the
        investment variable of the input flow. This ratio used to fix the
        flow investments to each other.
        Values < 1 set the input flow lower than the output and > 1 will
        set the input flow higher than the output flow. If None no relation
        will be set:
        :math:`\dot{E}_{in,invest} = \dot{E}_{out,invest} \cdot r_{in,out}`
    initial_storage_level : numeric, :math:`c(-1)`
        The relative storage content in the timestep before the first
        time step of optimization (between 0 and 1).

        Note: When investment mode is used in a multi-period model,
        `initial_storage_level` is not supported.
        Storage output is forced to zero until the storage unit is invested in.
    balanced : boolean
        Couple storage level of first and last time step.
        (Total inflow and total outflow are balanced.)
    loss_rate : numeric (iterable or scalar)
        The relative loss of the storage content per hour.
    fixed_losses_relative : numeric (iterable or scalar), :math:`\gamma(t)`
        Losses per hour that are independent of the storage content but
        proportional to nominal storage capacity.

        Note: Fixed losses are not supported in investment mode.
    fixed_losses_absolute : numeric (iterable or scalar), :math:`\delta(t)`
        Losses per hour that are independent of storage content and independent
        of nominal storage capacity.

        Note: Fixed losses are not supported in investment mode.
    inflow_conversion_factor : numeric (iterable or scalar), :math:`\eta_i(t)`
        The relative conversion factor, i.e. efficiency associated with the
        inflow of the storage.
    outflow_conversion_factor : numeric (iterable or scalar), :math:`\eta_o(t)`
        see: inflow_conversion_factor
    min_storage_level : numeric (iterable or scalar), :math:`c_{min}(t)`
        The normed minimum storage content as fraction of the
        nominal storage capacity or the capacity that has been invested into
        (between 0 and 1).
        To set different values in every time step use a sequence.
    max_storage_level : numeric (iterable or scalar), :math:`c_{max}(t)`
        see: min_storage_level
    storage_costs : numeric (iterable or scalar), :math:`c_{storage}(t)`
        Cost (per energy) for having energy in the storage, starting from
        time point :math:`t_{1}`.
    lifetime_inflow : int, :math:`n_{in}`
        Determine the lifetime of an inflow; only applicable for multi-period
        models which can invest in storage capacity and have an
        invest_relation_input_capacity defined
    lifetime_outflow : int, :math:`n_{in}`
        Determine the lifetime of an outflow; only applicable for multi-period
        models which can invest in storage capacity and have an
        invest_relation_output_capacity defined

        A set with all :py:class:`~.GenericStorage` objects with two investment

    storage_content
        Storage content for every storage and timestep. The value for the
        storage content at the beginning is set by the parameter

    **Constraints**

    The following constraints are created for all investment storages:

        Storage balance (Same as for :class:`.GenericStorageBlock`)

        .. math:: E(t) = &E(t-1) \cdot
            (1 - \beta(t)) ^{\tau(t)/(t_u)} \\

            + \dot{E}_i(p, t) \cdot \eta_i(t) \cdot \tau(t)

        Total storage capacity (p > 0 for multi-period model only)

        .. math::
            &
            if \quad p=0:\\
            &
            E_{total}(p) = E_{exist} + E_{invest}(p)\\
            &\\
            &
            else:\\

        Old storage capacity (p > 0 for multi-period model only)

        .. math::

            E_{old}(p) = E_{old,exo}(p) + E_{old,end}(p)\\
            &\\
            &
            if \quad p=0:\\
            &
            E_{old,end}(p) = 0\\
            &\\
            &
            else \quad if \quad l \leq year(p):\\
            &
            E_{old,end}(p) = E_{invest}(p_{comm})\\

            \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        where:

        * (*) is only performed for the first period the condition is True.
          A decommissioning flag is then set to True to prevent having falsely
          added old capacity in future periods.
        * :math:`year(p)` is the year corresponding to period p
        * :math:`p_{comm}` is the commissioning period of the storage

    Depending on the attribute :attr:`nonconvex`, the constraints for the
    bounds of the decision variable :math:`E_{invest}(p)` are different:\

        * :attr:`nonconvex = False`

        .. math::
            &
            E_{invest, min}(p) \le E_{invest}(p) \le E_{invest, max}(p) \\
            &
            \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        * :attr:`nonconvex = True`

        .. math::
            &
            E_{invest, min}(p) \cdot b_{invest}(p) \le E_{invest}(p)\\
            &
            E_{invest}(p) \le E_{invest, max}(p) \cdot b_{invest}(p)\\
            &
            \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

    The following constraints are created depending on the attributes of
    the :class:`.GenericStorage`:

        * :attr:`initial_storage_level is None`;
          not applicable for multi-period model

            Constraint for a variable initial storage content:

        .. math::
               E(-1) \le E_{exist} + E_{invest}(0)

        * :attr:`initial_storage_level is not None`;
          not applicable for multi-period model

            An initial value for the storage content is given:

        .. math::
               E(-1) = (E_{invest}(0) + E_{exist}) \cdot c(-1)

        * :attr:`balanced=True`;
          not applicable for multi-period model

            The energy content of storage of the first and the last timestep
            are set equal:

        .. math::
            E(-1) = E(t_{last})

        * :attr:`invest_relation_input_capacity is not None`

            Connect the invest variables of the storage and the input flow:

        .. math::
            &
            P_{i,total}(p) =
            E_{total}(p) \cdot r_{cap,in} \\
            &
            \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        * :attr:`invest_relation_output_capacity is not None`

            Connect the invest variables of the storage and the output flow:

        .. math::
            &
            P_{o,total}(p) =
            E_{total}(p) \cdot r_{cap,out}\\
            &
            \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        * :attr:`invest_relation_input_output is not None`

            Connect the invest variables of the input and the output flow:

        .. math::
            &
            P_{i,total}(p) =
            P_{o,total}(p) \cdot r_{in,out}\\
            &
            \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        * :attr:`max_storage_level`

            Rule for upper bound constraint for the storage content:

        .. math::
            &
            E(t) \leq E_{total}(p) \cdot c_{max}(t)\\
            &
            \forall p, t \in \textrm{TIMEINDEX}

        * :attr:`min_storage_level`

            Rule for lower bound constraint for the storage content:

        .. math::
            &
            E(t) \geq E_{total}(p) \cdot c_{min}(t)\\
            &
            \forall p, t \in \textrm{TIMEINDEX}


    **Objective function**

    Objective terms for a standard model and a multi-period model differ
    quite strongly. Besides, the part of the objective function added by the
    investment storages also depends on whether a convex or nonconvex
    investment option is selected. The following parts of the objective
    function are created:

    *Standard model*

        * :attr:`nonconvex = False`

            .. math::
                E_{invest}(0) \cdot c_{invest,var}(0)

        * :attr:`nonconvex = True`

            .. math::
                E_{invest}(0) \cdot c_{invest,var}(0)
                + c_{invest,fix}(0) \cdot b_{invest}(0)\\

    Where 0 denotes the 0th (investment) period since
    in a standard model, there is only this one period.

    *Multi-period model*

        * :attr:`nonconvex = False`

            .. math::
                &
                E_{invest}(p) \cdot A(c_{invest,var}(p), l, ir)
                \cdot \frac {1}{ANF(d, ir)} \cdot DF^{-p}\\
                &
                \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        In case, the remaining lifetime of a storage is greater than 0 and
        attribute `use_remaining_value` of the energy system is True,
        the difference in value for the investment period compared to the
        last period of the optimization horizon is accounted for
        as an adder to the investment costs:

            .. math::
                &
                E_{invest}(p) \cdot (A(c_{invest,var}(p), l_{r}, ir) -
                A(c_{invest,var}(|P|), l_{r}, ir)\\
                & \cdot \frac {1}{ANF(l_{r}, ir)} \cdot DF^{-|P|}\\
                &\\
                &
                \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        * :attr:`nonconvex = True`

            .. math::
                &
                (E_{invest}(p) \cdot A(c_{invest,var}(p), l, ir)
                \cdot \frac {1}{ANF(d, ir)}\\
                &
                +  c_{invest,fix}(p) \cdot b_{invest}(p)) \cdot DF^{-p} \\
                &
                \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        In case, the remaining lifetime of a storage is greater than 0 and
        attribute `use_remaining_value` of the energy system is True,
        the difference in value for the investment period compared to the
        last period of the optimization horizon is accounted for
        as an adder to the investment costs:

            .. math::
                &
                (E_{invest}(p) \cdot (A(c_{invest,var}(p), l_{r}, ir) -
                A(c_{invest,var}(|P|), l_{r}, ir)\\
                & \cdot \frac {1}{ANF(l_{r}, ir)} \cdot DF^{-|P|}\\
                &
                +  (c_{invest,fix}(p) - c_{invest,fix}(|P|))
                \cdot b_{invest}(p)) \cdot DF^{-p}\\
                &\\
                &
                \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        * :attr:`fixed_costs` not None for investments

            .. math::
                &
                \sum_{pp=year(p)}^{limit_{end}}
                E_{invest}(p) \cdot c_{fixed}(pp) \cdot DF^{-pp})
                \cdot DF^{-p}\\
                &
                \forall p \in \textrm{PERIODS}

        * :attr:`fixed_costs` not None for existing capacity

            .. math::
                \sum_{pp=0}^{limit_{exo}} E_{exist} \cdot c_{fixed}(pp)
                \cdot DF^{-pp}

    where:

    * :math:`A(c_{invest,var}(p), l, ir)` A is the annuity for
      investment expenses :math:`c_{invest,var}(p)`, lifetime :math:`l`
      and interest rate :math:`ir`.
    * :math:`l_{r}` is the remaining lifetime at the end of the
      optimization horizon (in case it is greater than 0 and
      smaller than the actual lifetime).
    * :math:`ANF(d, ir)` is the annuity factor for duration :math:`d`
      and interest rate :math:`ir`.
    * :math:`d=min\{year_{max} - year(p), l\}` defines the
      number of years within the optimization horizon that investment
      annuities are accounted for.
    * :math:`year(p)` denotes the start year of period :math:`p`.
    * :math:`year_{max}` denotes the last year of the optimization
      horizon, i.e. at the end of the last period.
    * :math:`limit_{end}=min\{year_{max}, year(p) + l\}` is used as an
      upper bound to ensure fixed costs for endogenous investments
      to occur within the optimization horizon.
    * :math:`limit_{exo}=min\{year_{max}, l - a\}` is used as an
      upper bound to ensure fixed costs for existing capacities to occur
      within the optimization horizon. :math:`a` is the initial age
      of an asset.
    * :math:`DF=(1+dr)` is the discount factor.

    The annuity / annuity factor hereby is:

        .. math::
            &
            A(c_{invest,var}(p), l, ir) = c_{invest,var}(p) \cdot
                \frac {(1+ir)^l \cdot ir} {(1+ir)^l - 1}\\
            &\\
            &
            ANF(d, ir)=\frac {(1+ir)^d \cdot ir} {(1+ir)^d - 1}

    They are retrieved, using oemof.tools.economics annuity function. The
    interest rate :math:`ir` for the annuity is defined as weighted
    average costs of capital (wacc) and assumed constant over time.

    The overall summed cost expressions for all *InvestmentFlowBlock* objects
    can be accessed by

    * :attr:`om.GenericInvestmentStorageBlock.investment_costs`,
    * :attr:`om.GenericInvestmentStorageBlock.fixed_costs` and
    * :attr:`om.GenericInvestmentStorageBlock.costs`.

    Their values  after optimization can be retrieved by

    * :meth:`om.GenericInvestmentStorageBlock.investment_costs`,
    * :attr:`om.GenericInvestmentStorageBlock.period_investment_costs`
      (yielding a dict keyed by periods); note: this is not a Pyomo expression,
      but calculated,
    * :meth:`om.GenericInvestmentStorageBlock.fixed_costs` and
    * :meth:`om.GenericInvestmentStorageBlock.costs`.
