PyPSA-GB v2.2.0

PyPSA-GB v2.2.0 adds a major two-stage market dispatch workflow, stronger historical market validation, improved ETYS network upgrade handling, and new tools for renewable aggregation and marginal-cost calibration.

Highlights

  • Added two-stage market dispatch:

    • Stage 1 copperplate wholesale market solve.
    • Stage 2 constrained balancing mechanism redispatch.
    • Rolling day-ahead wholesale mode and rolling/per-timestep balancing mode.
    • Optional wholesale-only workflow.
    • Market dashboards, summaries, and generated analysis notebooks.

  • Added ELEXON and NESO market validation tooling:

    • ELEXON BMRS bid/offer data retrieval and shared cache handling.
    • BMU-to-generator mapping.
    • ELEXON-derived bid/offer price support.
    • BM calibration scorecards.
    • NESO constraint validation and boundary analysis outputs.

  • Improved marginal-cost and subsidy modelling:

    • Daily, thermal, and renewable marginal-cost calibration scripts.
    • CfD and ROC subsidy tracking.
    • Post-solve revenue accounting.
    • Support for empirical renewable marginal costs from ELEXON bid data.

  • Improved ETYS network modelling:

    • More robust ETYS upgrade application for circuits, transformers, and HVDC links.
    • ETYS file registry for version-aware file and sheet handling.
    • Better handling of HVDC aliases, coordinates, and network validation.
    • New ETYS network figures for 2023 and 2035.

  • Added renewable aggregation:

    • Optional aggregation of renewable generators by bus and carrier.
    • Capacity-preserving aggregation with capacity-weighted p_max_pu profiles.
    • Unit tests covering aggregation behaviour.

  • Expanded configuration and scenarios:

    • New market scenario examples.
    • Rolling market validation scenarios.
    • Renewable performance factors.
    • Embedded generation correction options.
    • BM line-rating overrides and voltage-level relaxation settings.

  • Documentation updates:

    • New market dispatch user guide.
    • Updated API documentation for market, ETYS, and integration modules.
    • Updated workflow, configuration, scenario, network, and troubleshooting docs.
    • Added market dispatch tutorial.

Testing

This release adds unit coverage for renewable aggregation, BMU mapping, market utilities, connectivity repair, and updates workflow scenario validation tests.
