Progress bar showing that 15% of the priority features have been delivered by the PyPSA-Taskforce. A collaboration between TU Berlin, Open Energy Transition, and University of Pisa. We are closing the gap between PyPSA and proprietary energy planning models.

PyPSA-Taskforce strengthens #PyPSA as a transparent, industry-grade planning tool, making it a stronger alternative to proprietary models. In collaboration with the University of Pisa and TU Berlin, we've already closed 4 issues with 5 more in progress. 🔗 github.com/orgs/PyPSA/p...
#EnergyTransition

🚀 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!

🚨 New paper: Coupling integrated assessment and energy system models 🚨

Planning future energy systems requires bridging two fundamentally different scales: long-term transformation pathways spanning decades, and short-term power system operations unfolding hour by hour.

#PyPSA

Green energy and steel imports reduce Europe’s net-zero infrastructure needs - Nature Communications This study examines cost reductions, volumes, & vectors of green energy imports to Europe, showing diminishing returns at higher volumes and a preference for methanol, steel and hydrogen imports.

Green imports and Europe’s net-zero blueprint 🏗️🌍
Steel 🔩, methanol ⛽, ammonia 🌾, hydrogen 🫧, electricity ⚡ - What to bring in and what to keep local?

New #pypsa study in @natcomms.nature.com with @nworbmot.bsky.social and @euronion42.bsky.social.

www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Every #pypsa talk starts with “… it stands for python power system analysis… well, it’s not just power systems…”

At some point you need to bite the bullet and change the name to #PyEsa pronounced pie-yesa. Python energy system analysis.
@nworbmot.bsky.social

We are not only #PyPSA users, but also experienced in open-source frameworks like #Calliope, #TIMES, and #Temoa. We can solve your energy planning needs with open tools.

#EnergyModeling

Multi-Day Storage is often overlooked in energy models—but this hides its true value. Our study with Form Energy shows iron-air batteries in Germany can cut costs, reduce curtailment & offer support during Dunkelflaute.

#PyPSA #EnergyStorage #OpenSource

⚡ A new analysis by Agora Energiewende, using in-house modelling based on the Power System for Power Analysis ( #PyPSA) framework, examines sustainable pathways for Kazakhstan’s power sector. 2/x

In the paper, we also explore some more scenarios, e.g. with none or only one of the networks available. So if you're curios about a detailed infrastructure view on Europe's Carbon Management Strategy, have a look! We look forward to your questions! 🌱

Of course, this was made with #PyPSA 😉

#PyPSA #EnergySystems #OpenSource

I'd love to see that in #pypsa & I'm not so sure how much "room" there is for H2 pipelines, given ⬇️
bsky.app/profile/janrosenow.bsky....
but as @nworbmot.bsky.social said, (eg ➡️https://youtu.be/Z_naCeaB80c?si=9ieIKEjZiFr8buoC)there are many near optimal solutions?

🙌 This work was done with @nworbmot.bsky.social and Victor M. Zavala. Huge thanks my colleagues @fneum.bsky.social , Fabian Hoffman and Elisabeth Zeyen for always being there when I needed them most. And of course, a nod to the whole brilliant #PyPSA community. 8/8

NEW MODELLING. Introducing TZ-APG, an open source #PyPSA model of the #ASEAN Power Grid (APG). With a focus on regional transmission and dispatch, it covers 10 countries across 24 nodes.

⚡️ Download the model and an accompanying report, 'From Vision to Voltage', at transitionzero.org/tz-apg

This work would not have been possible without the community of open-source modelers, #PyPSA in particular, who have shared their knowledge in such a granular and transparent way
