The GENESYS Simulation tool has the centra … The GENESYS Simulation tool has the central target so optimise the future European power system (electricity) with a high share of renewable generation. It can find an economic optimal distribution of generators, storage and grid in a 21 region Europe.
The optimisation is based on a covariance matrix adaption evolution strategy (CMA-ES) while the operation is simulated as a hierarchical setup of system elements aiming to balance the load at minimal cost.
GENESYS comes with a set of input time-series and a parameter set for 2050 which can be adjusted by the user.
It was developed as open source within a publicly funded project and its development is currently continued at RWTH Aachen University.ently continued at RWTH Aachen University.
