#MopoProject launches the Spine Tools Event Series!
🔌 Starting on 24 March, we will show how we have powered the development of Spine Tools — from improvements to Spine Toolbox and SpineOpt to insights from European and national energy system models.
🔌 Data and workflow management tutorials, case studies, workshops, discussions on how to involve the user community, and the future of #MopoProject Spine Tools beyond this year were among the topics covered during our General Assembly at #DTU in Roskilde!
Stay tuned for a detailed report 🔌
🔌 Did you miss the webinar about #CorRES organised by Global Power System Transformation Consortium and #MopoProject?
