Brazil - Power Model 2050

Installation and running the model It is necessary to install Calliope to run the model. Instructions for installation and running the model are available at:https://calliope.readthedocs.io/. Temporal resolution The temporal resolution of the model is 8 hours by default. You can set the model with another resolution in the "overrides" file: time_resampling: model.time: {function: resample, function_options: {'resolution': '8H'}} Please be aware that running the model might be computationally expensive. The model contains data from one year. If you wish to test the model, you can indicate a shorter time range in the "overrides" file > weather years. For example, you can select a subset of ten days of data: year_2010: model.subset_time: ['2010-01-01', '2010-01-10'] Weather year Weather years include data from 2000 to 2019. Scenarios The scenario names are structured as follows: route + policy + year: Routes: 1) Baseline 2) Limited electrification (elec. stage 1) 3) Intensive electrification (elec. stage 2) 4) Net zero Policy: 1) Default (status quo) 2) Land constraints (exclusion of relevant ecological lands) (LC) 3) 100% renewable (RE) - phase-out fossil fuels 4) Land constraints (LC) + 100% RE Example: scenario_netzero_banned_2019 (route=netzero, policy= phase-out fossil fuels)
