# PyPSA-Eur-Sec: A Sector-Coupled Open Optimisation Model of the European Energy System # PyPSA-Eur-Sec: A Sector-Coupled Open Optimisation Model of the European Energy System
*WARNING*: This model is under construction and contains serious
problems that distort the results. See the github repository
[issues](https://github.com/PyPSA/pypsa-eur-sec/issues) for some of
the problems (please feel free to help or make suggestions). There is
neither documentation nor a paper yet, but we hope to have a preprint
out by summer 2020. We cannot support this model if you choose to use
it.

PyPSA-Eur-Sec was initially based on the model PyPSA-Eur-Sec described
in the paper [Synergies of sector coupling and transmission
reinforcement in a cost-optimised, highly renewable European energy
system](https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.05290) (2018) but it differs by
being based on the higher resolution electricity transmission model

one-node-per-country model, and by including biomass, industry,
industrial feedstocks, aviation, shipping, better carbon management,
carbon capture and usage/sequestration, and gas networks.
