The Global Energy System Model (GENeSYS-MOD) is an open-source energy system model, originally based on the Open-Source Energy Modeling System (OSeMOSYS) framework. While still part of the OSeMOSYS family of models, various aspects have been redesigned, expanded, or added. GENeSYS-MOD is a linear program, minimizing total system costs. Energy demands ...

The peer-to-peer electricity trading model FRESH:COM developed by TU Wien is part of the case study “Behavior of communities of actors” within the H2020 project openENTRANCE. The model was transformed to an open-source model during the project. It is now publicly available on GitHub at github.com/tperger/FRESH-COM implemented in Python. The ...

The GUSTO model is an open-source model (OSM) optimizing the energy technology investment (portfolio decision optimization) and the technology dispatch on a local level. It is an extension of the existing OSM urbs. The expansion of the model’s framework includes additional features and functionalities. Hence, the model is tailor-made for analyzing ...

The Open Generation and Transmission Operation and Expansion Planning Model with RES and ESS (openTEPES) determines the investment plans of new facilities (generators, ESS and lines) to supply the forecasted demand at minimum cost. Tactical planning is concerned with time horizons of 10-20 years. Its objective is to evaluate the ...

Integrate is an optimization model for planning of local energy systems where different energy carriers and technologies are considered simultaneously. The model gives the user a graphical overview of a given energy system (e.g. municipality, city, suburb) with respect to costs, environmental consequences and use of local energy resources. The ...

EXIOMOD is an economic model able to measure the environmental impact of economic activities. As a multisector model, it accounts for the economic dependency between sectors. It is also a global and multi-country model with a consistent trade linking between countries at the commodity level. Based on national account data, ...
