Model input data

You can obtain the complete input dataset (PostgreSQL database dump) from Zenodo . See Usage notes on how to get the model running with the data.

The database contains the following tables:

Description

wn_abw_demandts

Demand timeseries electricity and heat (absolute)

wn_abw_demography

Population and employment

wn_abw_dsmts

DSM timeseries (absolute)

wn_abw_dsmts_norm

DSM timeseries (normalized to 1 MWh)

wn_abw_feedints

Feedin timeseries electricity Strom (absolute and normalized)

wn_abw_grid_hv_bus

El. grid: buses

wn_abw_grid_hv_line

El. grid: lines

wn_abw_grid_hv_transformer

El. grid: EHV/HV stations

wn_abw_grid_hvmv_substation

El. grid: HV/MV stations

wn_abw_grid_mv_griddistrict

El. grid: MV grid districts

wn_abw_heating_structure

Heating structure HH+GHD (relative shares)

wn_abw_mun

Municipalities

wn_abw_mundata

Statistical data on municipalities

wn_abw_potential_areas_pv

Potential areas: ground-mounted PV

wn_abw_potential_areas_pv_roof

Potential areas: roof-mounted PV

wn_abw_potential_areas_wec

Potential areas: wind energy

wn_abw_powerplant

Plants

wn_abw_rel_subst_id_ags_id

Relation table: HV/MV stations – municipalities

wn_abw_tech_assumptions

Scenario data / assumptions on costs emissions efficiencies lifetimes

wn_abw_tempts

Temperature timeseries (air and soil)

The database table wn_abw_tech_assumptions includes costs, emissions, efficiencies, and lifetimes based upon data from [1] , [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] , [26] .

Result data

The raw results can be either produced by running the optimization or obtained from Zenodo here .

The detailed results as shown in chapter Results show only static graphics, for full functionality the interactive Jupyter notebooks for all scenarios can be generated as described in Usage notes or downloaded as executed version from Zenodo here .
