&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming Sixth Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities and companies. The workshop will take place in '''Frankfurt, Germany''' hosted by the [https://fias.uni-frankfurt.de/en/ Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies] (see [[Events|Events]] for previous workshops). The workshop will take place on '''20-21 April 2017''', with an optional tutorial day before on 19 April 2017. Since the workshop is run by volunteers, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a programme and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the programme. In the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About the workshop =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Openmod Workshops provide a forum for modellers to come together and discuss how to further the use of open data and open software tools in the energy modelling community. Topics range from exchanges about specific types of data (e.g. sources for open data on building stocks or distribution networks) to advocacy and outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a small part of the workshop consists of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in breakout groups on specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so please get actively involved by suggesting topics! To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming Sixth Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities and companies. The workshop will take place in '''Frankfurt, Germany''' hosted by the [https://fias.uni-frankfurt.de/en/ Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies] (see [[Events|Events]] for previous workshops). The workshop will take place on '''20-21 April 2017''', with an optional tutorial day before on 19 April 2017. Since the workshop is run by volunteers, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a programme and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the programme. In the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About the workshop =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Openmod Workshops provide a forum for modellers to come together and discuss how to further the use of open data and open software tools in the energy modelling community. Topics range from exchanges about specific types of data (e.g. sources for open data on building stocks or distribution networks) to advocacy and outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a small part of the workshop consists of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in breakout groups on specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so please get actively involved by suggesting topics! To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming Sixth Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities and companies. The workshop will take place in '''Frankfurt, Germany''' hosted by the [https://fias.uni-frankfurt.de/en/ Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies] (see [[Events|Events]] for previous workshops). The workshop will take place on '''20-21 April 2017''', with an optional tutorial day before on 19 April 2017. Since the workshop is run by volunteers, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a programme and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the programme. In the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About the workshop =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Openmod Workshops provide a forum for modellers to come together and discuss how to further the use of open data and open software tools in the energy modelling community. Topics range from exchanges about specific types of data (e.g. sources for open data on building stocks or distribution networks) to advocacy and outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a small part of the workshop consists of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in breakout groups on specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so please get actively involved by suggesting topics! To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming Sixth Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities and companies. The workshop will take place in '''Frankfurt, Germany''' hosted by the [https://fias.uni-frankfurt.de/en/ Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies] (see [[Events|Events]] for previous workshops). The workshop will take place on '''20-21 April 2017''', with an optional tutorial day before on 19 April 2017. Since the workshop is run by volunteers, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a programme and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the programme. In the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About the workshop =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Openmod Workshops provide a forum for modellers to come together and discuss how to further the use of open data and open software tools in the energy modelling community. Topics range from exchanges about specific types of data (e.g. sources for open data on building stocks or distribution networks) to advocacy and outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a small part of the workshop consists of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in breakout groups on specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so please get actively involved by suggesting topics! To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
= Breakout groups =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The workshop is organised from and for modellers and stakeholders of the open energy modelling community who want to exchange and discuss about energy models, code, data, licenses, transparency, making results understandable to stakeholders, campaigning for open data...; if you are interested to discuss a special subject you can propose [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d86QsKWc3hKWyUNuEKeEndhuOW03xFWUSzXnsi3Bl9o/edit# breakout groups] on the google sheet. Please communicate your ideas for new breakout groups and add your name to a group that you would like to join. You can add suggestions for the content either in the table or as a comment.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming Sixth Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities and companies. The workshop will take place in '''Frankfurt, Germany''' hosted by the [https://fias.uni-frankfurt.de/en/ Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies] (see [[Events|Events]] for previous workshops). The workshop will take place on '''20-21 April 2017''', with an optional tutorial day before on 19 April 2017. Since the workshop is run by volunteers, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a programme and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the programme. In the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About the workshop =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Openmod Workshops provide a forum for modellers to come together and discuss how to further the use of open data and open software tools in the energy modelling community. Topics range from exchanges about specific types of data (e.g. sources for open data on building stocks or distribution networks) to advocacy and outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a small part of the workshop consists of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in breakout groups on specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so please get actively involved by suggesting topics! To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming Sixth Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities and companies. The workshop will take place in '''Frankfurt, Germany''' hosted by the [https://fias.uni-frankfurt.de/en/ Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies] (see [[Events|Events]] for previous workshops). The workshop will take place on '''20-21 April 2017''', with an optional tutorial day before on 19 April 2017. Since the workshop is run by volunteers, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a programme and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the programme. In the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About the workshop =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Openmod Workshops provide a forum for modellers to come together and discuss how to further the use of open data and open software tools in the energy modelling community. Topics range from exchanges about specific types of data (e.g. sources for open data on building stocks or distribution networks) to advocacy and outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a small part of the workshop consists of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in breakout groups on specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so please get actively involved by suggesting topics! To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;

To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;This is the wiki page for the upcoming Sixth Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities and companies. The workshop will take place in '''Frankfurt, Germany''' hosted by the [https://fias.uni-frankfurt.de/en/ Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies] (see [[Events|Events]] for previous workshops). The workshop will take place on '''20-21 April 2017''', with an optional tutorial day before on 19 April 2017. Since the workshop is run by volunteers, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a programme and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the programme. In the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About the workshop =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Openmod Workshops provide a forum for modellers to come together and discuss how to further the use of open data and open software tools in the energy modelling community. Topics range from exchanges about specific types of data (e.g. sources for open data on building stocks or distribution networks) to advocacy and outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a small part of the workshop consists of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in breakout groups on specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so please get actively involved by suggesting topics! To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;This is the wiki page for the upcoming Sixth Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities and companies. The workshop will take place in '''Frankfurt, Germany''' hosted by the [https://fias.uni-frankfurt.de/en/ Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies] (see [[Events|Events]] for previous workshops). The workshop will take place on '''20-21 April 2017''', with an optional tutorial day before on 19 April 2017. Since the workshop is run by volunteers, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a programme and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the programme. In the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About the workshop =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Openmod Workshops provide a forum for modellers to come together and discuss how to further the use of open data and open software tools in the energy modelling community. Topics range from exchanges about specific types of data (e.g. sources for open data on building stocks or distribution networks) to advocacy and outreach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a small part of the workshop consists of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in breakout groups on specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so please get actively involved by suggesting topics! To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakout groups should have specific aims, which can be followed up after the workshop, e.g. improving the openmod wiki pages, lobbying a data-holder to change its licencing, improving educational tools, or outreach.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming '''Fifth Workshop of the [http://openmod-initiative.org/ Open Energy Modelling Initiative]''', a grass-roots organization of modellers from various European research institutes and universities. After two workshops in Berlin, one in London and one in Stockholm, the next one will be in '''Milano, Italy hosted by the [http://www.energia.polimi.it/english/index.php? Politecnico di Milano – Department of Energy (Mi Bovisa branch)]'''.The workshop takes place on '''27-28 October, 2016'''. As always, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently with a program and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the program. And in the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We try to stream the openmod workshop live on ''[https://www.twitch.tv/openmod https://www.twitch.tv/openmod] '' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Energy models are widely used for policy advice and research. They serve to answer questions on energy policy, decarbonization, and transitions towards renewable energy sources. Yet, most energy models are black boxes – even to fellow researchers. This is what we want to change. We are a group of modellers from various universities and research institutes who want to promote open energy modelling. We believe that Open Source models and Open Data will advance knowledge and lead to better energy policies. Our mission is to enable Open Source energy modelling by providing a platform for collaboration as well as tools along the full value chain of energy economics and energy system models. That is why we founded the Open Energy Modelling Initiative (openmod initiative) just a year ago. You are welcome to join us for our next workshop!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bulk of the workshop consists of breakout groups, where specific topics are discussed and worked upon. People can suggest breakout topics in advance, but to keep the workshop fluid and adaptable, topics can also be suggested on the day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Breakout-groups&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The workshop is organised from and for modellers and stakeholders of the open energy modelling community who want to exchange and discuss about energy models, code, data, licenses, transparency, making results understandable to stakeholders,...; if you are interested in a special subject you can propose a breakout group and find other participants who want to discuss the same subject.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please use the google sheet for [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZYzmHimwBbj3sXgL-23oypjbKG55twm4eJYE6lCmc_M/edit# breakout groups] to communicate your ideas for breakout groups or to add your name to a group that you would like to join. You can add suggestions for the content either in the table or as a comment.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming '''Fourth Workshop of the [http://openmod-initiative.org/ Open Energy Modelling Initiative]''', a grass-root organization of modellers from various European research institutes and universities. After two workshops in Berlin and one in London, the next one will be in '''Stockholm, Sweden hosted by [http://www.kth.se/en/itm/inst/energiteknik/forskning/desa/welcome-to-the-unit-of-energy-systems-analysis-kth-desa-1.197296/ KTH]'''.The workshop takes place on '''28-29 April, 2016'''. As always, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently; with a program and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the program. And in the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Energy models are widely used for policy advice and research. They serve to answer questions on energy policy, decarbonization, and transitions towards renewable energy sources. Yet, most energy models are black boxes – even to fellow researchers. This is what we want to change. We are a group of modellers from various universities and research institutes who want to promote open energy modelling. We believe that Open Source models and Open Data will advance knowledge and lead to better energy policies. Our mission is to enable Open Source energy modelling by providing a platform for collaboration as well as tools along the full value chain of energy economics and energy system models. That is why we founded the Open Energy Modelling Initiative (openmod initiative) just a year ago. You are welcome to join us for our next workshop!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Break-out-groups ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A break-out-group is a workshop-like gathering of interested individuals for a timespan of 2-3 hours to actively discuss a common topic. All groups feature 1-2 organisers whose responsibility is to moderate the discussion and capture any results in written form (preferably in a shared Google Document [for easier simultaneous editing of all participants]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Third Workshop featured a total 22 break-out groups, which were considered too numerous in hindsight. At the same time, the breadth of covered topics. This section is the attempt to bundle similar break-out-group topics under more general labels to reduce the number of groups, while keeping their total scope as broad as possible.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Open Data&amp;amp;nbsp;'''&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Most probable candidate for splitting in 2-3 different groups: covers data publishing (where and how), data acquisition (from where and how) and possibly data processing&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Modelling'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; (Mathematical) modelling techniques, algorithms, basically all conceptual work that is independent from the actual implementation (cf.&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Coding''').&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Tech'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; similar to&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Modelling''', but more focused on the specifics of specific technologies like fluctuating renewables, power grid, power plants (generators, turbines, ...). Probable candidate for splitting, if many participants with divergent interests come together&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Coding &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;'''software frameworks for modelling, data processing, optimisation, data visualisation; ask for tips, share tricks, present possibly helpful new stuff; possible split: introductory &amp;quot;course&amp;quot;-style group and a more advanced &amp;quot;sharing of experience&amp;quot;-style group&lt;br /&gt;

Possible overlap with '''Open Data'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Outreach''' &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; is about increasing awareness for open (energy) modelling community with Openmod as a common banner. This includes discussing the common mid- and long-term goals, presenting the current progress&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Possible overlap with '''Publishing'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

'''Be bold''' and edit, suggest and edit on the talk page or the Openmod mailing list (currently the organisation of the break-out-groups is done on the googledoc: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVM-eJBn9aYTW8ectX2hZ0QC3WesyInrtvWoMFRkiW4/edit# https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVM-eJBn9aYTW8ectX2hZ0QC3WesyInrtvWoMFRkiW4/edit#]).

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming '''Fourth Workshop of the [http://openmod-initiative.org/ Open Energy Modelling Initiative]''', a grass-root organization of modellers from various European research institutes and universities. After two workshops in Berlin and one in London, the next one will be in '''Stockholm, Sweden hosted by [http://www.kth.se/en/itm/inst/energiteknik/forskning/desa/welcome-to-the-unit-of-energy-systems-analysis-kth-desa-1.197296/ KTH]'''.The workshop takes place on '''28-29 April, 2016'''. As always, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently; with a program and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the program. And in the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Energy models are widely used for policy advice and research. They serve to answer questions on energy policy, decarbonization, and transitions towards renewable energy sources. Yet, most energy models are black boxes – even to fellow researchers. This is what we want to change. We are a group of modellers from various universities and research institutes who want to promote open energy modelling. We believe that Open Source models and Open Data will advance knowledge and lead to better energy policies. Our mission is to enable Open Source energy modelling by providing a platform for collaboration as well as tools along the full value chain of energy economics and energy system models. That is why we founded the Open Energy Modelling Initiative (openmod initiative) just a year ago. You are welcome to join us for our next workshop!&lt;br /&gt;

== Break-out-groups ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A break-out-group is a workshop-like gathering of interested individuals for a timespan of 2-3 hours to actively discuss a common topic. All groups feature 1-2 organisers whose responsibility is to moderate the discussion and capture any results in written form (preferably in a shared Google Document [for easier simultaneous editing of all participants]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Third Workshop featured a total 22 break-out groups, which were considered too numerous in hindsight. At the same time, the breadth of covered topics. This section is the attempt to bundle similar break-out-group topics under more general labels to reduce the number of groups, while keeping their total scope as broad as possible.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Proposed break-out-groups&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the previous mapping at hand, one could therefore propose the following topics. ''This list is open to discussion!''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Open Data&amp;amp;nbsp;'''&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Most probable candidate for splitting in 2-3 different groups: covers data publishing (where and how), data acquisition (from where and how) and possibly data processing&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Modelling'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; (Mathematical) modelling techniques, algorithms, basically all conceptual work that is independent from the actual implementation (cf.&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Coding''').&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Tech'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; similar to&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Modelling''', but more focused on the specifics of specific technologies like fluctuating renewables, power grid, power plants (generators, turbines, ...). Probable candidate for splitting, if many participants with divergent interests come together&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Coding &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;'''software frameworks for modelling, data processing, optimisation, data visualisation; ask for tips, share tricks, present possibly helpful new stuff; possible split: introductory &amp;quot;course&amp;quot;-style group and a more advanced &amp;quot;sharing of experience&amp;quot;-style group&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Publishing'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; is about (Open Access|Traditional|Other) methods of publishing one's research&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Licensing''' &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; as about license questions for choosing the &amp;quot;right&amp;quot; license for one's own published works or for how to comply with the licenses of others' works. Possible overlap with '''Open Data'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Outreach''' &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; is about increasing awareness for open (energy) modelling community with Openmod as a common banner. This includes discussing the common mid- and long-term goals, presenting the current progress&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Visibility''' &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; is about increasing the reach of one's individual/institute's reach through various means. Possible overlap with '''Publishing'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;This list is of course open to discussion and change! '''Be bold''' and edit, suggest and edit on the talk page or the Openmod mailing list (currently the organisation of the break-out-groups is done on the googledoc: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVM-eJBn9aYTW8ectX2hZ0QC3WesyInrtvWoMFRkiW4/edit# https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVM-eJBn9aYTW8ectX2hZ0QC3WesyInrtvWoMFRkiW4/edit#]). In the end, the existence of a break-out-groups lives and dies with people interested in discussing the proposed topics.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming '''Fourth Workshop of the [http://openmod-initiative.org/ Open Energy Modelling Initiative]''', a grass-root organization of modellers from various European research institutes and universities. After two workshops in Berlin and one in London, the next one will be in '''Stockholm, Sweden hosted by [http://www.kth.se/en/itm/inst/energiteknik/forskning/desa/welcome-to-the-unit-of-energy-systems-analysis-kth-desa-1.197296/ KTH]'''.The workshop takes place on '''28-29 April, 2016'''. As always, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently; with a program and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the program. And in the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Energy models are widely used for policy advice and research. They serve to answer questions on energy policy, decarbonization, and transitions towards renewable energy sources. Yet, most energy models are black boxes – even to fellow researchers. This is what we want to change. We are a group of modellers from various universities and research institutes who want to promote open energy modelling. We believe that Open Source models and Open Data will advance knowledge and lead to better energy policies. Our mission is to enable Open Source energy modelling by providing a platform for collaboration as well as tools along the full value chain of energy economics and energy system models. That is why we founded the Open Energy Modelling Initiative (openmod initiative) just a year ago. You are welcome to join us for our next workshop!&lt;br /&gt;

== Break-out-groups ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A break-out-group is a workshop-like gathering of interested individuals for a timespan of 2-3 hours to actively discuss a common topic. All groups feature 1-2 organisers whose responsibility is to moderate the discussion and capture any results in written form (preferably in a shared Google Document [for easier simultaneous editing of all participants]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Third Workshop featured a total 22 break-out groups, which were considered too numerous in hindsight. At the same time, the breadth of covered topics. This section is the attempt to bundle similar break-out-group topics under more general labels to reduce the number of groups, while keeping their total scope as broad as possible.&lt;br /&gt;

#'''Open Data&amp;amp;nbsp;'''&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Most probable candidate for splitting in 2-3 different groups: covers data publishing (where and how), data acquisition (from where and how) and possibly data processing&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Modelling'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; (Mathematical) modelling techniques, algorithms, basically all conceptual work that is independent from the actual implementation (cf.&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Coding''').&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Tech'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; similar to&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Modelling''', but more focused on the specifics of specific technologies like fluctuating renewables, power grid, power plants (generators, turbines, ...). Probable candidate for splitting, if many participants with divergent interests come together&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Coding &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;'''software frameworks for modelling, data processing, optimisation, data visualisation; ask for tips, share tricks, present possibly helpful new stuff; possible split: introductory &amp;quot;course&amp;quot;-style group and a more advanced &amp;quot;sharing of experience&amp;quot;-style group&lt;br /&gt;

Possible overlap with '''Open Data'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

This includes discussing the common mid- and long-term goals, presenting the current progress&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is the wiki page for the upcoming '''Fourth Workshop of the [http://openmod-initiative.org/ Open Energy Modelling Initiative]''', a grass-root organization of modellers from various European research institutes and universities. After two workshops in Berlin and one in London, the next one will be in '''Stockholm, Sweden hosted by [http://www.kth.se/en/itm/inst/energiteknik/forskning/desa/welcome-to-the-unit-of-energy-systems-analysis-kth-desa-1.197296/ KTH]'''.The workshop takes place on '''28-29 April, 2016'''. As always, there is no registration fee, so feel free to join!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wiki page will be updated frequently; with a program and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the program. And in the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Energy models are widely used for policy advice and research. They serve to answer questions on energy policy, decarbonization, and transitions towards renewable energy sources. Yet, most energy models are black boxes – even to fellow researchers. This is what we want to change. We are a group of modellers from various universities and research institutes who want to promote open energy modelling. We believe that Open Source models and Open Data will advance knowledge and lead to better energy policies. Our mission is to enable Open Source energy modelling by providing a platform for collaboration as well as tools along the full value chain of energy economics and energy system models. That is why we founded the Open Energy Modelling Initiative (openmod initiative) just a year ago. You are welcome to join us for our next workshop!&lt;br /&gt;

A break-out-group is a workshop-like gathering of interested individuals for a timespan of 2-3 hours to actively discuss a common topic. All groups feature 1-2 organisers whose responsibility is to moderate the discussion and capture any results in written form (preferably in a shared Google Document [for easier simultaneous editing of all participants]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Third Workshop featured a total 22 break-out groups, which were considered too numerous in hindsight. At the same time, the breadth of covered topics. This section is the attempt to bundle similar break-out-group topics under more general labels to reduce the number of groups, while keeping their total scope as broad as possible.&lt;br /&gt;

With the previous mapping at hand, one could therefore propose the following topics. ''This list is open to discussion!''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Open Data&amp;amp;nbsp;'''&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Most probable candidate for splitting in 2-3 different groups: covers data publishing (where and how), data acquisition (from where and how) and possibly data processing&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Modelling'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; (Mathematical) modelling techniques, algorithms, basically all conceptual work that is independent from the actual implementation (cf.&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Coding''').&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Tech'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; similar to&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Modelling''', but more focused on the specifics of specific technologies like fluctuating renewables, power grid, power plants (generators, turbines, ...). Probable candidate for splitting, if many participants with divergent interests come together&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Coding &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;'''software frameworks for modelling, data processing, optimisation, data visualisation; ask for tips, share tricks, present possibly helpful new stuff; possible split: introductory &amp;quot;course&amp;quot;-style group and a more advanced &amp;quot;sharing of experience&amp;quot;-style group&lt;br /&gt;

Possible overlap with '''Open Data'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Outreach''' &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; is about increasing awareness for open (energy) modelling community with Openmod as a common banner. This includes discussing the common mid- and long-term goals, presenting the current progress&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Possible overlap with '''Publishing'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

'''Be bold''' and edit, suggest and edit on the talk page or the Openmod mailing list (currently the organisation of the break-out-groups is done on the googledoc: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVM-eJBn9aYTW8ectX2hZ0QC3WesyInrtvWoMFRkiW4/edit# https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVM-eJBn9aYTW8ectX2hZ0QC3WesyInrtvWoMFRkiW4/edit#]).

This wiki page will be updated frequently; with a program and practical information. All participants are invited to contribute suggestions of different sessions to be included in the program. And in the meantime, feel free to register on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list] where all things regarding energy modelling are discussed.&lt;br /&gt;

== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Energy models are widely used for policy advice and research. They serve to answer questions on energy policy, decarbonization, and transitions towards renewable energy sources. Yet, most energy models are black boxes – even to fellow researchers. This is what we want to change. We are a group of modellers from various universities and research institutes who want to promote open energy modelling. We believe that Open Source models and Open Data will advance knowledge and lead to better energy policies. Our mission is to enable Open Source energy modelling by providing a platform for collaboration as well as tools along the full value chain of energy economics and energy system models. That is why we founded the Open Energy Modelling Initiative (openmod initiative) just a year ago. You are welcome to join us for our next workshop!&lt;br /&gt;

== Break-out-groups ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A break-out-group is a workshop-like gathering of interested individuals for a timespan of 2-3 hours to actively discuss a common topic. All groups feature 1-2 organisers whose responsibility is to moderate the discussion and capture any results in written form (preferably in a shared Google Document [for easier simultaneous editing of all participants]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Third Workshop featured a total 22 break-out groups, which were considered too numerous in hindsight. At the same time, the breadth of covered topics. This section is the attempt to bundle similar break-out-group topics under more general labels to reduce the number of groups, while keeping their total scope as broad as possible.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Proposed break-out-groups&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the previous mapping at hand, one could therefore propose the following topics. ''This list is open to discussion!''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Open Data&amp;amp;nbsp;'''&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Most probable candidate for splitting in 2-3 different groups: covers data publishing (where and how), data acquisition (from where and how) and possibly data processing&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Modelling'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; (Mathematical) modelling techniques, algorithms, basically all conceptual work that is independent from the actual implementation (cf.&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Coding''').&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Tech'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; similar to&amp;amp;nbsp;'''Modelling''', but more focused on the specifics of specific technologies like fluctuating renewables, power grid, power plants (generators, turbines, ...). Probable candidate for splitting, if many participants with divergent interests come together&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#'''Coding &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;'''software frameworks for modelling, data processing, optimisation, data visualisation; ask for tips, share tricks, present possibly helpful new stuff; possible split: introductory &amp;quot;course&amp;quot;-style group and a more advanced &amp;quot;sharing of experience&amp;quot;-style group&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Publishing'''&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; is about (Open Access|Traditional|Other) methods of publishing one's research&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Licensing''' &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; as about license questions for choosing the &amp;quot;right&amp;quot; license for one's own published works or for how to comply with the licenses of others' works. Possible overlap with '''Open Data'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Outreach''' &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; is about increasing awareness for open (energy) modelling community with Openmod as a common banner. This includes discussing the common mid- and long-term goals, presenting the current progress&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;'''Visibility''' &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; is about increasing the reach of one's individual/institute's reach through various means. Possible overlap with '''Publishing'''&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;This list is of course open to discussion and change! '''Be bold''' and edit, suggest and edit on the talk page or the Openmod mailing list (currently the organisation of the break-out-groups is done on the googledoc: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVM-eJBn9aYTW8ectX2hZ0QC3WesyInrtvWoMFRkiW4/edit# https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVM-eJBn9aYTW8ectX2hZ0QC3WesyInrtvWoMFRkiW4/edit#]). In the end, the existence of a break-out-groups lives and dies with people interested in discussing the proposed topics.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
