# PyPSA-Eur: An Open Optimisation Model of the European Transmission System
|
||
|
|
||
|
PyPSA-Eur is an open model dataset of the European power system at the
|
||
|
transmission network level that covers the full ENTSO-E area.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The model is described and partially validated in the paper
|
||
|
[PyPSA-Eur: An Open Optimisation Model of the European Transmission
|
||
|
System](https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.01613)
|
||
|
[arXiv:1806.01613](https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.01613).
|
||
|
|
||
|
This repository contains the scripts and some of the data required to
|
||
|
automatically build the dataset from openly-available sources.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Built versions of the model can be found the accompanying [Zenodo
|
||
|
repository](https://zenodo.org/record/1246851).
|
||
|
|
||
|
The model is designed to be imported into the open toolbox
|
||
|
[PyPSA](https://github.com/PyPSA/PyPSA) for operational studies as
|
||
|
well as generation and transmission expansion planning studies.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The dataset consists of:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- A grid model based on the [GridKit](https://github.com/bdw/GridKit)
|
||
|
extraction of the [ENTSO-E Transmission System
|
||
|
Map](https://www.entsoe.eu/data/map/). The grid model contains 6001
|
||
|
lines (alternating current lines at and above 220kV voltage level
|
||
|
and all high voltage direct current lines) and 3657 substations.
|
||
|
- The open power plant database
|
||
|
[powerplantmatching](https://github.com/FRESNA/powerplantmatching).
|
||
|
- Electrical demand time series from the
|
||
|
[OPSD project](https://open-power-system-data.org/).
|
||
|
- Renewable time series based on ERA5 and SARAH, assembled using the [atlite tool](https://github.com/FRESNA/atlite).
|
||
|
- Geographical potentials based on land use (CORINE) and excluding nature reserves (Natura2000) are computed with the [vresutils library](https://github.com/FRESNA/vresutils).
