The open energy modelling framework

Project description

Oemof stands for “Open Energy System Modeling Framework” and provides a free, open source and clearly documented model to analyse energy supply systems. It is developed in Python and designed as a framework with a modular structure containing several packages which communicate through well defined interfaces.

With oemof we provide base packages for energy system modeling and optimization.

Documentation

Full documentation can be found at http://oemof.readthedocs.org.

Installing oemof

sudo pip3 install oemof

Developing oemof

We highly encourage you to contribute to further development of oemof. If you want to collaborate see description below or contact us.

To install the developer version two steps are necessary:

git clone git@github.com:oemof/oemof.git
sudo pip3 install -e /path/to/the/repository

See http://oemof.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation_and_setup.html for further information.

See the developer version of the documentation at: http://oemof.readthedocs.org/en/latest/.

Further packages within oemof

Feedinlib and oemof.db are part of the oemof framework. They can be used to create energy system models but are not a must.

Examples

The linkage of specific modules of the various packages is called an application (app) and depicts for example a concrete energy system model.

There is one executable example energy system in Storage optimization.

Further example apps in development can be found in Development examples.
