@danielhuppmann Thank you very much for this feedback. We know that this area is not as ordered as it should be. The reason is that the core maintainers lack intensive experience in this area. Do you like to support us in reordering the section about Energy System Assessment? |
It's a complex thing to do properly... It would be useful to give this a bit more structure beyond the section header, e.g., programming language(s), sectoral/temporal coverage (where this makes sense), ... See two projects that tried to do something similar with categorizing models... |

I just created an issue related to your feedback: I will also change the link in you commit directly to git repository link. We are planning to created a database / spreadsheet out of the list in an automated way to extract more data from the project and to do some statistics later on. You will find more information here: |
This PR updates the url and description of the pyam package.
Beyond the scope of this PR, but there seems to be a bit of confusion between the "Modeling" section and the "Analysis" section - many of the entries in "Analysis" are really modelling frameworks (e.g., PyPSA, oemof, matpower, POMATO), whereas pyam and the Open Energy Platform (and possibly others in that section) are tools for analysis-and-visualization packages/tools (but not for creating the scenario results). A bit of a review and structuring/tagging might be helpful...
