martavp 0a92d23698 Make transformation of Steel and Aluminum production depends on year
Previously, the transformation of the Steel and Aluminum production was assumed to occur overnight.
This commit enables the definition of a transformation path via the config.yaml file.
This requires adding the {planning_horizon} to the input and output file name of the following rules:
build_industrial_production_per_country_tomorrow
build_industrial_production_per_node
build_industry_energy_demand_per_node
prepare_sector_network

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 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 autumn 2021. We cannot support this model if you choose to use it.

PyPSA-Eur-Sec builds on the electricity generation and transmission model PyPSA-Eur to add demand and supply for the following sectors: transport, space and water heating, biomass, industry and industrial feedstocks. This completes the energy system and includes all greenhouse gas emitters except waste management, agriculture, forestry and land use.

Please see the documentation for installation instructions and other useful information about the snakemake workflow.

This diagram gives an overview of the sectors and the links between them:

Each of these sectors is built up on the transmission network nodes from PyPSA-Eur:

For computational reasons the model is usually clustered down to 50-200 nodes.

PyPSA-Eur-Sec was initially based on the model PyPSA-Eur-Sec-30 described in the paper Synergies of sector coupling and transmission reinforcement in a cost-optimised, highly renewable European energy system (2018) but it differs by being based on the higher resolution electricity transmission model PyPSA-Eur rather than a 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.

PyPSA-Eur-Sec includes PyPSA-Eur as a snakemake subworkflow. PyPSA-Eur-Sec uses PyPSA-Eur to build the clustered transmission model along with wind, solar PV and hydroelectricity potentials and time series. Then PyPSA-Eur-Sec adds other conventional generators, storage units and the additional sectors.
