Energy system models / project and model classification

This page contains ideas related to the classification of energy system projects and models. The purpose is to develop a Wikipedia infobox for energy system models, both open and closed.

Project criteria

edit
 
One energy model classification scheme
Project
parameter: project
purpose: project or software name (typically an acronym)
Abbreviation
parameter: abbreviation
purpose: abbreviation of long-form project name (if appropriate)
Expansion
parameter: expansion
purpose: expansion of short-form project name (if appropriate)
example: DESSTinEE → Demand for Energy Services, Supply and Transmission in EuropE.
Logo
parameters: logo, logo_size, logo_alt, logo_caption
purpose: project logo
Host
parameter: host
purpose: lead organization or organizations
Country
parameter: country
purpose: country most closely associated with the project
Code license
parameter: code_license
purpose: software license used
examples: proprietary, GPLv2, MIT, new BSD
Data license
parameter: data_license
purpose: data license used (given datasets are shipped)
examples: CC BY 4.0
Documentation license
parameter:documentation_license
purpose: documentation license
examples: CC BY 4.0
Website
parameter: website
purpose: project website URL
Wiki
parameter: wiki
purpose: project wiki URL (if offered)
Repository
parameter: repro
purpose: project code repository URL (if used) (often a version-controlled public code hosting site like GitHub)
Documentation
parameter: documentation
purpose: documentation URL (can point to website, wiki, code repository, or PDF file)
Code availability (originally from openmod: Model source public)
parameter: code_availability
purpose: method of distributing the code (not the data)
examples: git repository, archive file
can also add: on application, by invitation, membership only
Data availability
parameter: data_availability
purpose: describes the datasets the project ships
examples: none, reference scenario only, some, all
Established
parameter: established
purpose: date of establishment of the project
recommendation: use {{start date and age}}
Disestablished
parameter: disestablished
purpose: date of disestablishment of the project
recommendation: use {{end date and age}}
Key people
parameter: key people
purpose: list of key people (when significant, use with discretion)
Status
parameter: status
examples: planned, active, unmaintained, discontinued
Notes
parameter: note
purpose: other relevant information, such as the name of a new project deriving from this project
example: Superseded by TIMES for new applications

Model classification criteria

edit
Modeling genre
parameter: model_genre
purpose: self-described modeling genre
examples: mathematical programming, linear programming, mixed-integer programming, model framework, power market, electricity dispatch, agent-based simulation, energy system optimization model (ESOM), spreadsheet
Model type (restricted values)
parameter: model_type
allowed values: system optimization, system simulation, agent-based, hybrid, accounting, game theoretic, economic equilibrium, input/output, econometric, other
Sectors
parameter: sectors
purpose: sectors (or equivalently energy carriers) to which the model applies
examples: electricity, heat, gas, transport, all
Time resolution
parameter: time_resolution
purpose: the typical time step used by the model
examples: 15 minutes, hour, seasonal, year
Time horizon
parameter: time_horizon
purpose: the typical time horizon used by the model
examples: year, decade, to 2030, to 2050
Geo resolution
parameter: geo_resolution
purpose: the spatial scope of the model, may also include the spatial or topological resolution
examples: single site, municipal, national, western Europe, global
can also add: electricity price zones, transmission network, gas network
Modeling software
parameter: modeling_software
purpose: language and perhaps key libraries, solvers, and/or development environments
examples: C++, boost libraries, MySQL, Qt 4 or Fortran, PHP, Javascript, HTML, CSS or Excel/VBA or GAMS
Processing software
parameter: processing_software
purpose: the programming language or languages used to pre-process and post-process model data, including integrity checks and visualization
examples: Python, R, Excel/VBA
Platform
parameter: platform
purpose: the required computing platform for development and execution, including hardware, operating system, development environment, and runtime dependencies
examples: web-based, GAMS, GCC on Linux
