Optimization of flexibility options for transmission grids based on PyPSA
A speciality in this context is that transmission grids are described by the 380, 220 and 110 kV in Germany. Conventionally the 110kV grid is part of the distribution grid. The integration of the transmission and 'upper' distribution grid is part of eTraGo.
The focus of optimization are flexibility options with a special focus on energy storages. Grid expansion measures are not part of this tool and will be instead part of 'eGo' https://github.com/openego/eGo
Run:
`
git clone https://github.com/openego/eTraGo
`
Create a virtualenvironment (where you like it) and activate it:
`
virtualenv -p python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate
`
With your activated environment cd to the cloned directory and run:
`
pip install -e eTraGo
`
This will install all needed packages into your environment. Now you should be ready to go.
