Existing stakeholders may find that scary, but it will help the energy transition in the long-run.
Tools like PyPSA-SPICE and others can help lower the barrier to running these tools.
#freethemodels
We would like to thank all the contributors and developers who have made PyPSA possible up to this point. This includes those who have contributed code, reported bugs, or provided feedback! We would also like to thank the @dfg.de for funding the recent developments.

#OpenSource #FreeTheModels #EnergyPlanning
Participants from the energy ecosystem who signed up for the upcoming webinar on commercial-grade open-source software for energy planning.
How interested are grid planners in #OpenSource software solutions? The number of registered participants at our upcoming webinar speaks for itself!
And the interest comes from across the #Energy ecosystem and 50+ countries.

⚡ It's not just renewables — it's system integration. We asked our Head of Energy System Modeling Dr. Martha Frysztacki about emerging trends and challenges of modeling future grids. This is what she said: www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

Remember the scramble to find good gas system data after Russia escalated its invasion of Ukraine in 2022? Next time we need to hit the ground running. That means data and models ready to be run by a diverse set of stakeholders.

Only 19 countries have submitted their NDCs, but it is still far when aiming for the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C goal. With open energy modeling, policymakers plan and turn ambition into action.
We can give a hand: openenergytransition...
#ClimateAction #EnergyModeling #ParisAgreement #FreetheModels
Global climate goals require a shift in policy, decision-making, and investments, and open energy models can play a crucial role here.
We outline the potentials and benefits in our policy brief: www.linkedin.com/fee... or zenodo.org/records/1...

There are open-source alternatives to PLEXOS like our own PyPSA:
github.com/pypsa/pypsa
Besides costing nothing, open source gives you the freedom to inspect and modify the code.

Europe needs better, open energy data! And ready-to-go open reference models for fast, reactive analysis. New policy brief from Bruegel runs through the need, the benefits, the costs, the politics.

Feels weird reposting this with everything that's going on, but...
We are compiling an emissions & energy scenario ensemble that will hopefully be useful to IPCC AR7. Submission deadline March 1.
A little step towards #OpenScience and #FreeTheModels...
#ScenarioCompass
Very non-classy move by Energy Exemplar. And a classy response from @nworbmot.bsky.social and TU Berlin. #FreeTheModels!
🤣 love this! Throw in a free license for GenX and Sienna while you're at it!
Now it's official: we must destroy their value proposition. #FreeTheModels
Open source ftw.
Also: punishing a whole university for the activities of one research group seems like over-reach.
#freethemodels
Well, the choice of name was unfortunate, but this is a really cool initiative... A big step to #FreeTheModels!
Working with NUTS administrative EU 🇪🇺 regions is one of the little nuisances in #energysystems modelling and scenario analysis.
So the IIASA #ScenarioServices team put together a little #opensource #python utility package..

New perspective paper!
How can science better serve the needs of building a cleaner Canadian-US energy system?
We highlight gaps in #opensource data & modeling capacity, & argue to #freethemodels.

A great day for #opensource #energysystems analysis!
Kudos to the team at the 🇺🇸 Energy Information Administration #EIA for releasing the National Energy Systems Model #NEMS as an open-source tool on #GitHub...
#FreeTheModels for #OpenScience 🔌💡
Great to see the International Energy Agency (IEA) embrace #opensource energy modelling tool PyPSA
used for hourly modelling in their new report on future flexibility needs at different scales (hourly, seasonal, inter-annual)

How can Kazakhstan phase out coal and increase its share of wind and solar?
Take a peak below.
Modelling done with PyPSA, all code and data open:

My Bluesky (formerly Twitter) philosophy...
- 75% work: climate change mitigation, scientific software, #FAIRdata, #opensource & #freethemodels, ... (mostly English)
- 20% Vienna politics related to climate & mobility policy (trying to stay clear of party-politics, mostly German)
- 5% random
Matt Toombs of @energygovuk kicking off the 2050 Energy Calculator Conference in Richmond, London. Thx @samvaillanc for scoring me an invite. Vital work - you can't get from A to B without a roadmap, one which everyone can understand. And a great example of #FreeTheModels!
So, bottom line, great teamwork from a lot of people. Well done all, and thank you @fbirol and @IEA!
#freethemodels #openmod #opensource
There have been many people involved along the way. Of particular note, everyone behind @openmod #openmod, @daniel_huppmann, @nworbmot. I would like to think I gave them a modicum of useful support via my #freethemodels hashtag.
Check out this AWESOME list of open-source clean energy and sustainability resources, curated by @protontypes. #FreeTheModels is Unstoppable!

Calling all energy, climate, transport wonks - a splendid, powerful initiative:
#freethemodels!
RT if you agree that any energy and transport model produced using public funds should be open-source. No more poorly-built black boxes.
