Power System Optimization

This section provides examples related to network optimization with PyPSA. Note that PyPSA allows for optimising networks in two ways, first using the pyomo interface and second using the in-home implementation (which is way faster and memory-efficient). Some newer examples use the in-house implementation while others are based in the pyomo package.

No Pyomo

• Optimization without pyomo
• Constraining the total capacity per bus and carrier
• Multi Investment Optimization

Pyomo

• Two chained reservoirs
• Screening curve analysis
• Non-linear power flow after LOPF
• Redispatch Example with SciGRID network
• Security-Constrained Optimisation
• Simple electricity market examples
• Transformer with non-trivial phase shift and tap ratio
• Unit commitment
