| | |text_description=SIREN uses external datasets to model the potential for renewable energy generation for a geographic region. The approach is to model the data on an hourly basis for a desired year (ignoring leap days, that is, 8,760 hours). Users explore potential location and scale of renewable energy sources (stations, storage, transmission) to meet electricity demand. It is possible to model any geographic area and uses a number of open or publicly available data sources: | | |text_description=SIREN uses external datasets to model the potential for renewable energy generation for a geographic region.
