OSeMBE - Open Source energy Model Base for the European Union

Documentation Status

An OSeMOSYS model of the European Union, Norway, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom

Description

OSeMBE is an energy model base for the European Union developed using the OSeMOSYS Modelling Framework. The model provides country-detailed representation of the 27 European Union (EU) Member States, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. The model aims at being used as a multi-regional stakeholders engagement model at the European level. The development was funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 691739.

Setup and Installation

To use the model you need to install GLPK and a solver such as CBC, gurobi or CPLEX.

It is recommended to run the dataset in combination with the fast code of OSeMOSYS v1.0.1. To be found here: https://github.com/OSeMOSYS/OSeMOSYS_GNU_MathProg/releases/download/v1.0.1/osemosys_gnu_mathprog_v1.0.1.zip

It is recomended to use otoole v0.10.0 to handle input and output data. It can be installed by using:

pip install otoole==0.10.0

For the visualisation scripts you should have an environment with the following dependencies:

  • python >= 3.6
  • pandas
  • plotly

From this model version onwards Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) are available in OSeMBE. This makes it necessary that the model can handle negative emissions. Therefore, some minor modifications were necessary to the OSeMOSYS code. To run the model the OSeMOSYS code that can be found here should be used.

Folder structure

  • Input data are stored as datapackages in the input_data folder
