| style="width: 268px;" | The US ENergy SYStem (USENSYS) and Global ENErgy SYStem (GENESYS) are two new open source energy modeling initiatives for US and the Globe with the focus on renewable energy and transition to zero-carbon economy. The models are based on 'energyRt' package for R which facilitates development and application of Reference System (or capacity expansion) models using a set of classes and methods in R. The optimization model is currently formulated in GAMS and GLPK/MathProg. Julia/JuMP version is planned. The USENSYS model will be uploaded on GitHub by the workshop.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | The SWITCH-China Model was first developed in the Renewable and Appropriate Energy Laboratory at UC Berkeley as my PhD dissertation and I continue working on using the model to study the challenges facing China's clean power transition: soaring variable renewable energy penetration and curtailment; pressing air pollution, water stress, climate change, and human health challenges by coal consumption. Through the modeling efforts, I'm very familiar with the data availability, accessibility, and credibility of China's power systems, and the strategies to address those data and model challenges.&nbsp;<br />

| style="width: 206px;" | Characterization and utility of an extremely simple energy model<br />
| style="width: 268px;" | We discuss the motivation and use cases for a simple energy model that optimizes for a least-cost electricity system meeting hourly demand. There is significant uncertainty in future energy demand, technology costs, and government regulations. Our group has developed an open source, computationally cheap model capable of exploring a range of scenarios. The model can consider rare weather and demand events that are critical for system design by optimizing over multiple years. Our goal is to explore endogenous system dynamics and ultimately to inform policy and research and development goals.<br />

| style="width: 206px;" | reducing accessibility barriers to grid planning models/tools for stakeholders in electric infrastructure proceedings<br />
| style="width: 268px;" | Due to the closed nature of existing capacity expansion and production cost modeling tools in public stakeholder proceedings to vet electric infrastructure investments, stakeholders must invest significant time and resources to adequately evaluate IOU infrastructure investments. These stakeholders do not always have the resources to invest in such efforts and as a result, unnecessary infrastructure investments, which often favor traditional solutions that may not remain effective for their useful life, can be approved.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | The significant penetration of distributed renewable energy resources and increasingly dynamic fuel prices present significant challenges for the design and operation of critical infrastructure systems. To help explore how optimization algorithms can address these emerging challenges this work presents a collection of Julia packages for infrastructure optimization. These packages provide a variety of tools for, reproducing state-of-the-art results, developing new problem formulations, and benchmarking novel algorithms using standardized data formats and test cases.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Resilient Operations Models (ROM) move beyond standard production cost models (PCM) to simulate system behavior during a disruptive event. In order to test out the new capabilities needed to move from PCM to ROM, we have developed a number of adverse-weather event impact scenarios. The scenarios impose changing weather conditions onto a region of interest over time, and we model plausible subsequent component failures (generation and transmission), load impacts, and restoration. Here, we present several of these impact scenarios and simulation results from applications on the RTS-GMLC network.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | The integration of power electronics-interfaced generation from renewable energy sources poses additional challenges to the stability and transient behavior of electric power systems. In this work, we develop an open source simulation, LITS.jl, to study transient responses when there is a high penetration of converter-interfaced generation. It features multi-machine modeling capability, inverter parameter scaling to study different CIG penetration scenarios and device ratings, and a rich library of synchronous generators components (AVR, PSS, Governor, etc.)<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Energy models use time series data to constrain electricity demand and solar and wind availability. Data sets can contain missing and potentially erroneous values. We present a method for identifying erroneous data and imputing missing and erroneous values. This method is validated using multiple techniques. As a demonstration, we focus on the U.S. Energy Information Administration√¢??s (EIA) hourly electricity demand data gathered from 56 regional entities; the EIA data is available to users √¢??as is√¢?¬ù. We provide the cleaned and validated data for use in region-specific analyses.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Assembling the data needed for a power system model is time consuming, and comparing inputs across models can be even harder. Clean Air Task Force is building PowerGenome, an open-source data platform for building US power system model inputs. We use - and are contributing new data to - Catalyst Cooperative√¢??s PUDL project as our main data repository. PUDL currently provides access to clean and normalized EIA/EPA/FERC data. Once a user specifies model regions (single and/or aggregations of IPM regions) and a handful of other parameters, PowerGenome creates the inputs needed for a model run.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | We are interested in creating forecast or power scenarios when the<br/>underlying forecast methodology is modeled as being more (or less)<br/>accurate than it has been. This can be used in studies that extend<br/>into the future and may need to consider the possibility that forecast<br/>technology will improve.&nbsp; An open-source software implementation of<br/>the methods described here is available. It is called mapemaker.<br/><br />

| style="width: 268px;" | NASA provides public access to the Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications-2 (MERRA-2) version of the GEOS-5 atmospheric general circulation model. The reanalysis model assimilates a wide array of observational data to deliver an internally consistent historical representation of weather. We present a method to derive solar and wind capacity factors for any region on Earth from this reanalysis data. This multi-decadal time series with hourly resolution can be used to inform energy policy and investment decisions for wind and solar heavy electricity systems.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | The Design, Analysis, and Operations Toolkit (DAO-Tk) is a software package that allows users to explore design optimization, operations decision, and performance characterization of concentrating solar power tower plants.&nbsp; Users choose from a list of variables such as tower height, solar multiple, design-point irradiance, thermal storage size, etc., and specify information about the system using a list of parameters. The software can then optimize the specified variables to reduce the cost of energy produced by the system while meeting certain production requirements.<br />

Temoa development began nearly a decade ago to address two prevailing shortcomings in the community: (1) results produced with closed models couldn't be replicated, and (2) little sensitivity and uncertainty analysis was being performed with large, complex models. This talk will briefly summarize how Temoa is working to address these challenges and introduce a new effort funded by the Sloan Foundation to create an Open Energy Outlook for the United States.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | The US ENergy SYStem (USENSYS) and Global ENErgy SYStem (GENESYS) are two new open source energy modeling initiatives for US and the Globe with the focus on renewable energy and transition to zero-carbon economy. The models are based on 'energyRt' package for R which facilitates development and application of Reference System (or capacity expansion) models using a set of classes and methods in R. The optimization model is currently formulated in GAMS and GLPK/MathProg. Julia/JuMP version is planned. The USENSYS model will be uploaded on GitHub by the workshop.<br />

Through the modeling efforts, I'm very familiar with the data availability, accessibility, and credibility of China's power systems, and the strategies to address those data and model challenges.&nbsp;<br />

| style="width: 206px;" | Characterization and utility of an extremely simple energy model<br />
| style="width: 268px;" | We discuss the motivation and use cases for a simple energy model that optimizes for a least-cost electricity system meeting hourly demand. There is significant uncertainty in future energy demand, technology costs, and government regulations. Our group has developed an open source, computationally cheap model capable of exploring a range of scenarios. The model can consider rare weather and demand events that are critical for system design by optimizing over multiple years. Our goal is to explore endogenous system dynamics and ultimately to inform policy and research and development goals.<br />

| style="width: 206px;" | reducing accessibility barriers to grid planning models/tools for stakeholders in electric infrastructure proceedings<br />
| style="width: 268px;" | Due to the closed nature of existing capacity expansion and production cost modeling tools in public stakeholder proceedings to vet electric infrastructure investments, stakeholders must invest significant time and resources to adequately evaluate IOU infrastructure investments. These stakeholders do not always have the resources to invest in such efforts and as a result, unnecessary infrastructure investments, which often favor traditional solutions that may not remain effective for their useful life, can be approved.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Resilient Operations Models (ROM) move beyond standard production cost models (PCM) to simulate system behavior during a disruptive event. In order to test out the new capabilities needed to move from PCM to ROM, we have developed a number of adverse-weather event impact scenarios. The scenarios impose changing weather conditions onto a region of interest over time, and we model plausible subsequent component failures (generation and transmission), load impacts, and restoration. Here, we present several of these impact scenarios and simulation results from applications on the RTS-GMLC network.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Energy models use time series data to constrain electricity demand and solar and wind availability. Data sets can contain missing and potentially erroneous values. We present a method for identifying erroneous data and imputing missing and erroneous values. This method is validated using multiple techniques. As a demonstration, we focus on the U.S. Energy Information Administration√¢??s (EIA) hourly electricity demand data gathered from 56 regional entities; the EIA data is available to users √¢??as is√¢?¬ù. We provide the cleaned and validated data for use in region-specific analyses.<br />

Clean Air Task Force is building PowerGenome, an open-source data platform for building US power system model inputs. We use - and are contributing new data to - Catalyst Cooperative√¢??s PUDL project as our main data repository. PUDL currently provides access to clean and normalized EIA/EPA/FERC data. Once a user specifies model regions (single and/or aggregations of IPM regions) and a handful of other parameters, PowerGenome creates the inputs needed for a model run.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | The US ENergy SYStem (USENSYS) and Global ENErgy SYStem (GENESYS) are two new open source energy modeling initiatives for US and the Globe with the focus on renewable energy and transition to zero-carbon economy. The models are based on 'energyRt' package for R which facilitates development and application of Reference System (or capacity expansion) models using a set of classes and methods in R. The optimization model is currently formulated in GAMS and GLPK/MathProg. Julia/JuMP version is planned. The USENSYS model will be uploaded on GitHub by the workshop.<br />

| style="width: 206px;" | Characterization and utility of an extremely simple energy model<br />
| style="width: 268px;" | We discuss the motivation and use cases for a simple energy model that optimizes for a least-cost electricity system meeting hourly demand. There is significant uncertainty in future energy demand, technology costs, and government regulations. Our group has developed an open source, computationally cheap model capable of exploring a range of scenarios. The model can consider rare weather and demand events that are critical for system design by optimizing over multiple years. Our goal is to explore endogenous system dynamics and ultimately to inform policy and research and development goals.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Due to the closed nature of existing capacity expansion and production cost modeling tools in public stakeholder proceedings to vet electric infrastructure investments, stakeholders must invest significant time and resources to adequately evaluate IOU infrastructure investments. These stakeholders do not always have the resources to invest in such efforts and as a result, unnecessary infrastructure investments, which often favor traditional solutions that may not remain effective for their useful life, can be approved.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Resilient Operations Models (ROM) move beyond standard production cost models (PCM) to simulate system behavior during a disruptive event. In order to test out the new capabilities needed to move from PCM to ROM, we have developed a number of adverse-weather event impact scenarios. The scenarios impose changing weather conditions onto a region of interest over time, and we model plausible subsequent component failures (generation and transmission), load impacts, and restoration. Here, we present several of these impact scenarios and simulation results from applications on the RTS-GMLC network.<br />

We present a method for identifying erroneous data and imputing missing and erroneous values. This method is validated using multiple techniques. As a demonstration, we focus on the U.S. Energy Information Administration√¢??s (EIA) hourly electricity demand data gathered from 56 regional entities; the EIA data is available to users √¢??as is√¢?¬ù. We provide the cleaned and validated data for use in region-specific analyses.<br />

<span style="font-size: 13.6px;">This is the wiki page for the upcoming 1st Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative in North America, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities, and companies. The workshop will take place at&nbsp;'''NREL, Golden, Colorado, United States, 18-19 September 2019&nbsp;'''with support form The Payne Institute for Public Policy at Colorado School of Mines</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Do also sign up to the&nbsp;[https://forum.openmod-initiative.org/ forum]&nbsp;and&nbsp;[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list]&nbsp;where all things regarding open energy modelling are discussed.</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">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.</span></span><br />
<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Only a small part of the workshop will consist of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in&nbsp;groups on do-a-thons addressing specific topics. The topics are chosen by the participants themselves, so '''please get actively involved by [https://forum.openmod-initiative.org/t/nrel-2019-do-a-thon-suggestions/1628 suggesting topics]''!'''''&nbsp;To get the most out of the workshop, it is suggested to consider in advance what you would like to discuss.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Do-a-thons 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 licensing, improving educational tools, or outreach.</span></span><br />

The models are based on 'energyRt' package for R which facilitates development and application of Reference System (or capacity expansion) models using a set of classes and methods in R. The optimization model is currently formulated in GAMS and GLPK/MathProg. Julia/JuMP version is planned. The USENSYS model will be uploaded on GitHub by the workshop.<br />

There is significant uncertainty in future energy demand, technology costs, and government regulations. Our group has developed an open source, computationally cheap model capable of exploring a range of scenarios. The model can consider rare weather and demand events that are critical for system design by optimizing over multiple years. Our goal is to explore endogenous system dynamics and ultimately to inform policy and research and development goals.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Due to the closed nature of existing capacity expansion and production cost modeling tools in public stakeholder proceedings to vet electric infrastructure investments, stakeholders must invest significant time and resources to adequately evaluate IOU infrastructure investments. These stakeholders do not always have the resources to invest in such efforts and as a result, unnecessary infrastructure investments, which often favor traditional solutions that may not remain effective for their useful life, can be approved.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | Resilient Operations Models (ROM) move beyond standard production cost models (PCM) to simulate system behavior during a disruptive event. In order to test out the new capabilities needed to move from PCM to ROM, we have developed a number of adverse-weather event impact scenarios. The scenarios impose changing weather conditions onto a region of interest over time, and we model plausible subsequent component failures (generation and transmission), load impacts, and restoration. Here, we present several of these impact scenarios and simulation results from applications on the RTS-GMLC network.<br />

| style="width: 268px;" | There are many distinct models in the field of energy systems modeling that use differing cost, demand, and technical inputs with varying temporal and spatial resolutions to predict the future energy mix. Results from these models are difficult to compare because underlying assumptions vary and it is unclear where differences originate. There is an evident need for a framework for inter-model comparison that allows us to pinpoint differences between a range of models to contextualize their outputs. Our work focuses on an initial analysis from two open-source models using a simple framework.<br />

| style="width:368px;" | A method for cleaning and validation of time series data used in energy models: demonstrated using hourly electricity demand data<br />
| style="width:253px;" | Energy models use time series data to constrain electricity demand and solar and wind availability. Data sets can contain missing and potentially erroneous values. We present a method for identifying erroneous data and imputing missing and erroneous values. This method is validated using multiple techniques. As a demonstration, we focus on the U.S. Energy Information Administration√¢??s (EIA) hourly electricity demand data gathered from 56 regional entities; the EIA data is available to users √¢??as is√¢?¬ù. We provide the cleaned and validated data for use in region-specific analyses.<br />

Clean Air Task Force is building PowerGenome, an open-source data platform for building US power system model inputs. We use - and are contributing new data to - Catalyst Cooperative√¢??s PUDL project as our main data repository. PUDL currently provides access to clean and normalized EIA/EPA/FERC data. Once a user specifies model regions (single and/or aggregations of IPM regions) and a handful of other parameters, PowerGenome creates the inputs needed for a model run.<br />

| style="width:368px;" | Generating a framework for inter-model comparisons in energy systems modeling<br />
| style="width:253px;" | There are many distinct models in the field of energy systems modeling that use differing cost, demand, and technical inputs with varying temporal and spatial resolutions to predict the future energy mix. Results from these models are difficult to compare because underlying assumptions vary and it is unclear where differences originate. There is an evident need for a framework for inter-model comparison that allows us to pinpoint differences between a range of models to contextualize their outputs. Our work focuses on an initial analysis from two open-source models using a simple framework.<br />

<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">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.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Only a small part of the workshop will consist of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in&nbsp;groups on do-a-thons addressing specific topics.

<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Do-a-thons 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 licensing, improving educational tools, or outreach.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: 13.6px;">This is the wiki page for the upcoming 1st Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative in North America, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities, and companies. The workshop will take place at&nbsp;'''NREL, Golden, Colorado, United States, 18-19 September 2019'''</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">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.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Only a small part of the workshop will consist of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in&nbsp;groups on do-a-thons addressing 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.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Do-a-thons 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 licensing, improving educational tools, or outreach.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: 13.6px;">This is the wiki page for the upcoming 1st Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative in North America, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities, and companies. The workshop will take place at&nbsp;'''NREL, Golden, Colorado, United States, 18-19 September 2019'''</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">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.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Only a small part of the workshop will consist of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in&nbsp;groups on do-a-thons addressing 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.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 13.6px;"><span style="font-size: 13.6px;">Do-a-thons 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 licensing, improving educational tools, or outreach.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: 13.6px;">This is the wiki page for the upcoming 1st Workshop of the Open Energy Modelling Initiative in North America, a grass-roots organization of modellers from various research institutes, universities, and companies. The workshop will take place at'''&nbsp;'''</span<span style="font-size: 13.6px;">''', Golden, Colorado, United States, 18-19 September 2019'''</span><br/><br />
<br />
The primary workshop location will be&nbsp;[http://ingenioer.au.dk/en/student-guidance/find-your-campus/au-campus-navitas/ AU Navitas building], a 15 minute walk from Aarhus main railway station and close to the city center. The venue is at Inge Lehmanns Gade, 10.<br />
<br />
Do also sign up to the&nbsp;[https://forum.openmod-initiative.org/ forum]&nbsp;and&nbsp;[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmod-initiative mailing list]&nbsp;where all things regarding open energy modelling are discussed.<br />
<br />
= '''About the workshop''' =<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Only a small part of the workshop will consist of prepared presentations. For the rest of the workshop, participants work together in&nbsp;groups on do-a-thons addressing 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.<br />
<br />
Do-a-thons 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 licensing, improving educational tools, or outreach.<br />
