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 arXiv: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.

The model is designed to be imported into the open toolbox PyPSA for operational studies as well as generation and transmission expansion planning studies.

The dataset consists of:

  • A grid model based on the GridKit extraction of the ENTSO-E Transmission System 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.
  • Electrical demand time series from the OPSD project.
  • Renewable time series based on ERA5 and SARAH, assembled using the atlite tool.
  • Geographical potentials based on land use (CORINE) and excluding nature reserves (Natura2000) are computed with the vresutils library.

Installation
