pypsa-sea-data

A ready-to-use package for modeling the Southeast Asia region with the latest version of pypsa-earth.

The content is based on the Master's Thesis High Resolution Techno-Economic Analysis of Future Power Network Development in Southeast Asia by Virio Andreyana.

To run the premade scenarios:

1. Clone this repository next to your pypsa-earth repository.
2. Copy the contents of pypsa-sea-data/configs into pypsa-earth/configs.
3. Retrieve the necessary data bundle and cutouts by modifying the enable section in config.sea.yaml.
4. Place any config from the scenarios- folder into pypsa-earth/configs/scenarios.
5. Run the code using: snakemake solve_all_networks.

The content of scenarios-pypsa-sea-v1 is an overnight foresight model of the Southeast Asia region with three optional network topologies:

• exist: Includes only existing interregional connections.
• aims: Includes all interregional connections proposed or discussed in the AIMS workpaper for the ASEAN power grid.
• irena: Includes all interregional connections modeled by IRENA's scenario.

And two load options for the year 2050:

• 1.5S-RE90: Total electricity demand of 6413 TWh/a.
• CNS: Total electricity demand of 3528 TWh/a.

Future plans include premade scenarios for myopic foresight. Most of the coding development, however, is in the pypsa-earth repository.
