text description: renpass is an open source simulation energy model which has the goal to fulfil the requirements of full transparency and the possibility to image 100% renewable energy systems as well as today's system on a high regional and time resolution. Currently renpass is being developed further as renpassG!S based on the Open Energy Modelling Framework (oemof).
