The parameter has the following syntax:
NCAP_AFC(r,y,p,cg,tslvl) = value;
Here r=region, y=year, p=process, cg=commodity/group and tslvl=time-slice level.
To define the availability factor for the output commodity COM, you should thus specify
NCAP_AFC(r,y,p,'COM',tslvl) = X;
For this to be meaningful, the process should have a capacity. Therefore, you should also define for the process either the existing capacity, or the investment costs for new capacity, or both.
