The simplification ``snakemake`` rules prepare **approximations** of the full model, for which it is computationally viable to co-optimize generation, storage and transmission capacities.
|
|
|
|
- :mod:`simplify_network` transforms the transmission grid to a 380 kV only equivalent network, while
|
|
- :mod:`cluster_network` uses a `k-means <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-means_clustering>`_ based clustering technique to partition the network into a given number of zones and then reduce the network to a representation with one bus per zone.
|
|
|
|
The simplification and clustering steps are described in detail in the paper
