@ -6,18 +6,20 @@ Myopic transition path
The myopic code can be used to investigate progressive changes in a network, for instance, those taking place throughout a transition path. The capacities installed in a certain time step are maintained in the network until their operational lifetime expires.
The myopic approach was initially developed and used in the paper [Early decarbonisation of the European Energy system pays off (2020)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.11009) but the current implementation complies with the pypsa-eur-sec standard working flow and is compatible with using the higher resolution electricity transmission model [PyPSA-Eur](https://github.com/PyPSA/pypsa-eur) rather than a one-node-per-country model, as well as including industry, industrial feedstocks, aviation, shipping, better carbon management, carbon capture and usage/sequestration, and gas networks.

The current code applies the myopic approach to generators, storage technologies and links in the power sector and the space and water heating sector.
The transport sector and industry and are not affected by the myopic code. In essence, the electrification of road and rail transport, the percentage of electric vehicles that allow demand-side management and vehicle-to-grid services, and the transformation in the different industrial subsectors do not evolve with time. They are kept fixed at the values specified in the configuration file.

In essence, the electrification of road and rail transport, the percentage of electric vehicles that allow demand-side management and vehicle-to-grid services, and the transformation in the different industrial subsectors do not evolve with time. They are kept fixed at the values specified in the configuration file. Including the transport sector and industry in the myopic code is planned for the near future.
Configuration
=================
PyPSA-Eur-Sec has several configuration options which are collected in a config.yaml file located in the root directory. Users should copy the provided default configuration (config.default.yaml) and amend their own modifications and assumptions in the user-specific configuration file (config.yaml). The following options included in the config.yaml file are relevant for the myopic code.

The myopic code solves the network for the time steps included in planning_horizons in a recursive loop, so that:
1.The existing capacities (those installed before the base year are added as fixed capacities with p_nom=value, p_nom_extendable=False). E.g. for baseyear=2020, capacities installed before 2020 are added. In addition, the network comprises additional generator, storage, and link capacities with p_nom_extendable=True. The non-solved network is saved in ‘results/run_name/networks/prenetworks_bronwfield’.
Base year is the first element in planning_horizons.
The base year is the first element in planning_horizons. Step 1 is implemented with the rule add_baseyear for the base year and with the rule add_brownfield for the remaining planning_horizons.
2.The 2020 network is optimized. The solved network is saved in ‘results/run_name/networks/postnetworks’
3.For the next planning horizon, e.g. 2030, the capacities from a previous time step are added if they are still in operation (i.e., if they fulfil planning horizon <= commissioned year + lifetime). In addition, the network comprises additional generator, storage, and link capacities with p_nom_extendable=True. The non-solved network is saved in ‘results/run_name/networks/prenetworks_bronwfield’.
Steps 2 and 3 are solved recursively for all the planning_horizons included in the configuration file.
2.The 2020 network is optimized, and the optimized capacities are renamed eg. solar-2020, onwind-2020. The solved network is saved in ‘results/run_name/networks/postnetworks’
3.For the next planning horizon, e.g. 2030, the capacities from a previous time step are added if they are still in operation (i.e., if they fulfil planning horizon < commissioned year + lifetime). In addition, the network comprises additional generator, storage, and link capacities with p_nom_extendable=True. The non-solved network is saved in ‘networks/prenetworks_bronwfield’.
Steps 2 and 3 are solved recursively for all the planning_horizons included in the configuration file

The heating capacities are assumed to have a lifetime indicated by the parameter lifetime in the configuration file, e.g 25 years. They are assumed to be decommissioned linearly starting on the base year, e.g., from 2020 to 2045.
