| 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! | | Energy models are widely used for policy advice and research.

| + | |
− | **Open modelling of heat pump/electrical heating/air conditioning demand based on temperature data
| + | |
− | **Modelling of transport demand
| + | |
| | | |
− | Realising you may have already discussed these topics in past workshops (sorry!), but I would like to hear discussed some of the following discussed [Charlie Heaps, SEI]:
| + | 16.15 – 17.30 Break-out groups 2 (parallel) |
| | | |
− | *
| + | 17.30 – 18.00 Reporting back (plenary) |
− | *What are the pros and cons of taking a currently closed source model to become open sourced? Most of our users are NOT programmers so we have focused on deveoping an API rather than on open sourcing. What suggestions do people have for this?
| + | |
− | **What difficulties have others faced (especially those working in a RAD environment in which software consists of many plugin components).
| + | |
− | **What are implications for revenue? We are a non profit org and have a business model where we give the software away for free to developing countries but charge to users in private companies and use the proceeds to pay for development and tech support. How might we replace that business model?
| + | |
− | **If we go open source, how do we get people really engaged in the ongoing development of the model. What experience do people have of managing and combining inputs without causing fragmentation as has happened in some communities (eg the MARKAL community).
| + | |
− | **Is it practical to go open source given that we use a programming language (Delphi) that is not as popular as it used to be?
| + | |
| | | |
− | *Modelling energy technology innovation and costs (Matt Hannon - Imperial)
| + | ''18.00 End of day'' |
− | **At present modellers typically use learning rates to calculate energy technology costs in the future. These normally assume a steady rate of learning and cost reduction.<br/>
| + | |
− | **History teaches us that costs do not simply fall in a linear fashion. Instead costs can remain static for some time before they fall dramatically (e.g. PV) and some costs fall and then rise <span style="font-size: 13.6000003814697px; line-height: 20.3999996185303px;">(e.g. nuclear, onshore wind). </span><br/>
| + | |
− | **<span style="font-size: 13.6000003814697px; line-height: 20.3999996185303px;">This is a function of numerous developments e.g. level of innovation support, externalities like energy prices, changes in customer preferences etc.</span>
| + | |
− | **A clearer understanding of how energy technology unfolds will help modellers more accurately accomodate for energy technology innovation and costs within their scenarios. This raises questions of which communities modellers should be working more closely with? e.g. innovation studies, sustainability transitions, engineers etc.
| + | |
| | | |
− | *Energy modelling for beginners (Matt Hannon - Imperial)
| + | ''18:30 Dinner and drinks at the [https://goo.gl/maps/1wJgS Builder's Arms] pub'' |
− | **Energy modelling has in the last 5-10 years become very popular, resulting in high levels of funding and the establishment of new modelling teaching initiatives, especially at MSc level
| + | |
− | **There is a significant proportion of the energy research community, mainly the more qualitatively focused, who have not had the opportunity to be formally trained in energy modelling but would like to learn more to: a) be able to do some modelling themselves and b) have constructive, inter-disciplinary conversations with the modelling community.
| + | |
− | **I propose a discussion about a 'modelling for beginners' initiative, focused particularly on PhD, post-doc and mid-career researchers who want to become familiar with basic modelling tools in a quick and easy to understand fashion
| + | |
− | **A week-long summer school, immediately before or after a future OpenMod workshop, might be suitable where a handful of expert modellers are hired to deliver complementary sessions. See Utrecht Summer School for example.

| + | == Model presentations<br/> == |
| + | |
| + | The goal of this session is to get a flavor what people do: What questions are they interested in? What kind of models they apply? Which software tools do they use? How do they interact with the modelling community? This is not about presenting a research paper or discussing in-depth modelling methodology. Not more than 2-3 slides per presentation.<br/> |

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!
Fee: no registration fee, but you will need to cover your own food and lodging expenses.
The goal of this session is to get a flavor what people do: What questions are they interested in? What kind of models they apply? Which software tools do they use? How do they interact with the modelling community? This is not about presenting a research paper or discussing in-depth modelling methodology. Not more than 2-3 slides per presentation.
In parallel sessions, we break out into smaller groups to get work done. On the last workshop, we started drafting an article on open modelling, re-worked the openmod-website, compiled an overview of applicable licenses, and developed recommendations for power plant identifiers, among other things.
All groups report back to the plenary and document their work.
Group work shall be documented. Klick on "Results" to open a Google document for documentation.
Some of these groups may wish to continue based on the outcomes from the last workshop:
