Sector-coupled input data for optimizing the German transmission grid

This repository contains input data for the open-source python tool eTraGo (electricity Transmission Grid optimization) version 0.9.0. This data will be uploaded to the OpenEnergy Platform which can be accessed by eTraGo. This dataset is an intermediate solution until the data is uploaded. The published data includes the sector-coupled transmission grid data for two scenarios (eGon2035 and eGon2035_lowlfex). It was created with the open-source tool eGon-data within the research project eGon. All input data sets as well as the code are available under open source licenses. The data is stored as a PostgreSQL database in the attached backup file. First, the required schemas and extensions have to be created within the database by running the following SQL statements: CREATE SCHEMA grid; CREATE SCHEMA boundaries; CREATE EXTENSION postgis; Afterwards the data can be restored by using e.g. pgAdmin or via PostgreSQL's pg_restore command (replace HOST, DATABASE_NAME, PORT and USER by your settings): pg_restore --host HOST --port PORT --username USER --no-password --dbname DATABASE_NAME --no-owner --no-privileges --verbose "etrago_data_egon2035.backup"
