PSA.jl is a partial implementation of Python for Power System Analysis (PyPSA) in the programming language Julia.
PSA.jl has been created primarily to take advantage of the speed, readability and features of the optimisation framework JuMP.
PSA.jl does not yet exist independently of PyPSA, in that you have to build your network first in PyPSA and export it in CSV format before PSA.jl can import the network and work with it.
So far the following functionality is implemented in PSA.jl:
- Import from CSV folder
- Export to CSV folder
- Most features of Linear Optimal Power Flow (LOPF), i.e. total electricity/energy system least-cost investment optimisation
What is not yet implemented, but coming soon:
- Normal power flow
- Unit commitment
- Stores
- LOPF with non-unity snapshot weightings
- Links with more than one output
- Standing losses in storage
- Some time-dependent efficiencies and max/min limits
- Import/Export from/to NetCDF
- JuMP.jl
- CSV.jl
- LightGraphs.jl
- DataFrames.jl
- PyCall.jl
- Gurobi.jl
To install PSA.jl, execute git clone git@github.com:PyPSA/PSA.jl.git
in the folder /path/to/lib of your choice.
Then in your Julia script:
push!(LOAD_PATH, "/path/to/lib")
import PSA
network = PSA.import_network("/your/exported/PyPSA/network/")
using Clp
solver = ClpSolver()
m = PSA.lopf(network, solver)
print(m.objVal)
