13th Open Energy Modelling Workshop

Theme: Open and Inclusive Energy Modelling 

OpenMod2025 is the 13^th in a row – this year organized at KTH, focusing on inclusivity in open energy systems modelling, with a particular emphasis on regions facing data scarcity, low-quality datasets, and limited access to open tools. 

The organising Division of Energy Systems have long engaged in capacity building and model development beyond Europe, working with researchers and practitioners in low- and middle-income countries. Hosting this year’s OpenMod, they want to challenge the community to share insights on working in diverse contexts, while, of course, also welcoming traditional open energy modelling contributions. 

Tackling climate and energy challenges demands transdisciplinary, co-creative, and open approaches. This workshop will explore how we can expand participation in open energy modelling without compromising technical rigour.

Please contribute on:

• Best practices for open, high-resolution, and computationally intensive modelling
• Inclusive coding and accessible workflows
• Addressing data scarcity in LMIC applications
• Co-creating models and data with diverse communities
• Model intercomparison, coupling, and benchmarking across disciplines
• Training and workshops and knowledge-sharing activities designed to overcome barriers to participation 

… in a format that suits you:

• Lightning Talks – Share key insights in under 4 minutes
• Breakout Sessions – Engage in tutorials, do-a-thons, or discussions (1.5–3 hours)
• Social Activities – Suggest a short morning or evening activity to foster connections.

Welcome!
