TIMES Évora + | The TIMES-Évora is a city specific energy system model, which comprehensively represent Évora municipality energy systems, focusing on energy use in residential and non-residential buildings, transport systems and other energy uses (e.g. public lighting, small-scale industry etc.). It also will represent the city waste chain and water and sewage systems in what concerns its energy consumption. The key objective of the model is the identification of an optimum mix of applicable measures and technologies that will pave the way towards the achievement of the cities’ sustainable targets. |
TIMES-PT + | TIMES_PT is a technology rich, bottom-up model generator, which uses linear-programming to produce a least-cost energy system to satisfy the demand for energy services, optimized according to a number of user constraints (e.g. CO2 emissions cap), over medium to long-term time horizons. TIMES_PT characterizes the entire chain of the Portuguese energy system from 2005 to 2050 (in 5-year steps), including energy imports and production (e.g., oil and bio refineries), transformation (e.g., power and heat production), distribution, exports and end-use consumption, in industry, residential, services, agriculture and transport sectors and their respective sub-sectors.
TIMES_PT has been developed since 2004 and has benefited from the peer-review of numerous national partners from industrial sectors, power production, oil refining and end-use energy sectors. TIMES_PT model informed climate policy in Portugal in the last 10 years and has supported the design of climate mitigation policies.
The development of the TIMES_PT model started within the EU research project NEEDS and the national research project E2POL. Although its implementation was motivated by research goals, during the past decade the model has become a major tool supporting national climate mitigation policies, and to a lesser extent, air pollution policies. The Low Carbon Roadmap 2050 is a flagship policy document currently used as the Portuguese long term view on mitigation goals, while the PNAC— National Plan on Climate Change includes the visions up to 2030 from stakeholders from other policy areas, as transportation and industry. The negotiations for the revisions of the National Emission Ceilings Directive for 2020 and 2030, as well as the National Strategy for Air Quality (2015) were supported by projections generated by TIMES_PT. More recently, TIMES_PT was linked with a national CGE model, which has motivated its use in the Green Tax Reform. |
Temoa + | Tools for Energy Model Optimization and Analysis (Temoa) is an open source framework used to conduct analysis with a bottom-up, technology rich energy system model. |
TransiEnt + | The TransiEnt library is written in the Modelica modeling language and allows simulations of coupled energy networks with high share of renewable energies. The library can be downloaded for free and open source under the Modelica License 2.
The TransiEnt library contains object oriented components models of all major elements of the enegy infrastructure with its corresponding producers, consumers, grids and storage systems. These components can be used to simulate different scenarios from single power plants starting up to the simulation of primary control in the ENTSO-E grid. |

URBS + | urbs is a linear programming optimisation model for capacity expansion planning and unit commitment for distributed energy systems. Its name, latin for city, stems from its origin as a model for optimisation for urban energy systems. Since then, it has been adapted to multiple scales from neighbourhoods to continents. |
USENSYS + | United States Energy SYStem (USENSYS) is an open source capacity expansion model (CEM, also knows as Reference Energy System model, RES), developped based on energyRt package for R. |
