OSeMOSYS developments presented at Open Energy Modelling Initiative in Milan
October 27th and 28th
On October 27th and 28th, the 5th Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative was held in Milan. Here, representatives of KTH-dESA presented the current developments and challenges of OSeMOSYS, among which: 1) the formulation of revised equations for the storage block of functionality, to take into account energy losses; 2) current modelling exercises of water-energy balances and interactions for Nexus applications; 3) current work on the core code, to reduce the LP matrix generation side; 4) formulation of new equations for representing the flexibility of the electricity system. The Open Energy Modelling Initiative is a biannual meeting of energy modellers working with open source models and databases, where latest applications and advancements in the field from all over Europe and abroad are brought, through short-talks, tech-talks and work sessions. During the meeting, OSeMOSYS was addressed as the tool of several applications by a number of researchers. More information about the event and the initiative can be found here .
