PyPSA-SPICE Model Builder

PyPSA-SPICE (PyPSA-based Scenario Planning and Integrated Capacity Expansion) is an open-source model builder for assessing national mid- and long-term energy scenarios using a least-cost, multi-sectoral optimisation approach based on the PyPSA framework. It can be used to build models that represent one or more countries with multiple interconnected nodes linked by electricity transmission. Within each region, it models the integration of the power, heat and transport sectors, with particularly detailed representation of the power system. In the download section, studies that have used the PyPSA-SPICE model, conducted either internally at Agora or in collaboration with our partners, are provided.

The model workflow has been designed to be more accessible compared to other PyPSA-based models, though basic Python coding knowledge is required.
