digraph snakemake_dag { graph [bgcolor=white, margin=0, size="8,5" ]; node [fontname=sans, fontsize=10, penwidth=2, shape=box, style=rounded ]; edge [color=grey, penwidth=2 ]; 0 [color="0.53 0.6 0.85", label=solve_network]; 1 [color="0.50 0.6 0.85", fillcolor=gray, label=prepare_network, style=filled]; 1 -> 0; 2 [color="0.36 0.6 0.85", label=cluster_network]; 2 -> 1; }

Prepare PyPSA network for solving according to The {opts} wildcard and The {ll} wildcard, such as.

  • adding an annual limit of carbon-dioxide emissions,

  • adding an exogenous price per tonne emissions of carbon-dioxide (or other kinds),

  • setting an N-1 security margin factor for transmission line capacities,

  • specifying an expansion limit on the cost of transmission expansion,

  • specifying an expansion limit on the volume of transmission expansion, and

  • reducing the temporal resolution by averaging over multiple hours or segmenting time series into chunks of varying lengths using tsam.

Inputs#

  • resources/costs.csv.: The database of cost assumptions for all included technologies for specific years from various sources; e.g. discount rate, lifetime, investment (CAPEX), fixed operation and maintenance (FOM), variable operation and maintenance (VOM), fuel costs, efficiency, carbon-dioxide intensity.

  • networks/elec_s{simpl}_{clusters}.nc: confer Rule cluster_network

Outputs#

  • networks/elec_s{simpl}_{clusters}_ec_l{ll}_{opts}.nc: Complete PyPSA network that will be handed to the solve_network rule.

Description#

Tip

The rule prepare_all_networks runs for all scenario s in the configuration file the rule prepare_network.
