▪️Lightning talk about the Indian developer use-case: m.youtube.com/watch?v=Yz-6ZH…
▪️ PyPSA documentation: docs.pypsa.org/latest/home/fe���
▪️ Free and open source code of PyPSA on GitHub: github.com/PyPSA/PyPSA

If you want similar capabilities, get in touch with me/ @oetenergy.bsky.social

We’re also planning to developing public examples for modeling CfDs, PPAs, penalties, subsidies, and more to **accelerate** adoption!

Let me know if you have any other wishes for OS energy planning tools 🛠️

Why it works:
🔺The user could customize the model to match every PPA detail
🔺Spreadsheet integration lets analysts quickly adjust inputs before optimising
🔺Open source is AI-ready - no unnecessary layer between the tool and your LLM

🚀 Open-source tools are becoming a powerful advantage for energy project developers.

An Indian 🇮🇳 developer recently used #PyPSA to design 24/7 carbon-free energy (CFE) power purchase agreements (PPAs) for renewable and storage projects and is super happy!

PyPSA v1.0 is officially here - 10 years and 2 days since the first git commit. This milestone release brings major new features, completely new documentation, and a fresh landing page - congratulations to all the PyPSA team! 🎉

GitHub - open-energy-transition/demandcast: Retrieve historic electricity demand data and generate synthetic future demand predictions using our ML model Retrieve historic electricity demand data and generate synthetic future demand predictions using our ML model - open-energy-transition/demandcast

The demand data is actually feeding the ML demand cast app: github.com/open-energy-... so people can get open electricity demand predictions for any part around, for any region, climatic year.

In general the more data, the better 🙌🏼 so please get in touch with our team to add this eventually.

ENTSO-E on LinkedIn: #energytransition #opensource #innovation #tyndp 🔧 ENTSO-E collaborates on open-source tools for energy planning 🔍 ENTSO-E’s TYNDP and adequacy studies rely on a comprehensive suite of modelling tools used by TSO experts. To enhance transparency, reproducibility, and accessibility, we are working on fit-for-purpose open-source tools that complement our existing planning data and methodologies. 🚀 In collaboration with Open Energy Transition , we have launched a research and innovation project to develop a complementary open-source tool in PyPSA for Scenario Building and Cost-Benefit Analysis within the TYNDP process. A first workshop on 16 January brought together TSO and OET experts to explore how PyPSA can be integrated into the modelling suite. #EnergyTransition #OpenSource #Innovation #TYNDP

„Hello, World!“

Yes, the GUI is one element that should be addressed but there are many other moving puzzle pieces that should be in place for seriously challenging existing solutions. Discussed a plan with @jessedjenkins.com few months ago

We are already active part of the SRG and will update the crowd at the earliest convenience 🙂👍🏽

Yep, that’s correct. We will probably tackle scenario building and the CBA process of the TYNDP. Can eventually tell more details in January.

I like the no risk strategy of doing both for the TYNDP like doing, PLEXOS and open source tools until there is 100% confidence in #opensource.
