**WARNING**: Please read the [limitations](https://pypsa-eur.readthedocs.io/en/latest/limitations.html) section of the
documentation and paper carefully before using the model. We do not
recommend to use the full resolution network model for simulations. At
high granularity the assignment of loads and generators to the nearest
network node may not be a correct assumption, depending on the topology of the underlying distribution grid,
and local grid
bottlenecks may cause unrealistic load-shedding or generator
curtailment. We recommend to cluster the network to a couple of
hundred nodes to remove these local inconsistencies. See the
discussion in Section 3.4 "Model validation" of the paper.
