Define Hydro Generators with Reservoirs
In the current version of PowerSystems.jl there is support and testing for hydropower generation plants with the following structures:
Shared upstream reservoir

subgraph s1["Hydro Plant 2"]
B["Turbine A"]
C["Turbine B"]
end
subgraph s2["HydroPlant 1"]
D["Turbine C"]
end
A --- C
A["Reservoir"] --- B & D
For this model, attach an upstream HydroReservoir to any number of HydroTurbines. This can model different power house elevations to consider the effect of the elevation and pressure heads on the specific turbines inside of a power plant.
Head and Tail Reservoirs for Pumped Hydropower Plants
For this model, attach two HydroReservoirs to any number of HydroPumpTurbines. The turbine and reservoirs structs store the elevations in each case calculate adequately the elevation and pressure heads for the facility.
