[PyPSA-EARTH] Taiwan in "13 power systems around the world"

[BO-BIN XIAO]

Hi PyPSA-Earth team,

I've noticed that PyPSA-Earth released the Taiwan power system, Brilliant Work!, and I've tried this model but it seems not work.

Here's my steps:

- "conda activate PyPSA-Earth"

- Replace in the config ["Africa"] by ["TA"]

- Run "snakemake -j 1 solve_all_networks"

And the snalemake's log shows:

I am willing and passionate about helping to test and correct data for the Taiwan power system. However, I am currently familiarizing myself with the program structure of pypsa-earth. And I would like to know how I can contribute to the Taiwan system.

Many Thanks.

Hi Xiao,

We are happy to support you! I just want to make you aware that there is Barton Chen aiming to do the same.

I think you both should team up. One way to reach out is to contact him over LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bartonchen/

I would prefer talking on Discord where we also have developer meetings: https://discord.gg/AnuJBk23FU (there on the support channel you can also raise issues/questions)

There are a couple of things we need to know to help you with your issue:
- Did you run the Nigeria tutorial successfully?

- Are you using the default configuration and made there the changes and renamed it to config.yaml? Can you share your config.yaml?

- which earth-osm version are you using? (type `conda list`)

Best wishes,

Max

Hi Max,

I've contacted with Barton Chen, and I'm willing to  team up with him to refine the PyPSA-Taiwan model.

Here's some test results about the tutorial:

1. No, I ran the Nigeria tutorial but it seems not work. 

2. Yes, I've used the default configuration and remaned it as config.yaml. The config.yaml and snakemake.log are attached.

3. The earth-osm version is 0.0.9.

Thanks for your kind assistance.

Xiao, Bo-Bin

Hi Xiao,

It is probably a local setup problem because all CI (tests) are passing. You path looks also weird `/home/bruce/pypsa-earth/pypsa-earth/pypsa-earth/Snakefile`.

I would recommend you following:

- Clean the local installation with `snakemake -j1 clean`

- Try to rerun with `snakemake -j1 solve_all_networks`

If this does not work, delete your folder and start from scratch:
- installation: https://pypsa-earth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html

- getting started: https://pypsa-earth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/short_tutorial.html

Make sure everything works for Nigeria before testing another region and read this/ play around with it:

Best wishes,

Max

Hi Max,

I've successfully completed the Nigeria tutorial, as well as the simulation of the Taiwan model. I am pleased to report that the simulation data can now be downloaded without any issues.

With these tasks finished, I would like to inquire about any additional work related to the Taiwan model that may require my attention. Please kindly let me know if there are other tasks or areas where my assistance would be helpful.

By the way, I've read in the PyPSA documentation about generators that in the LOPF, the output limits for a generator are set by "p_nom * p_max_pu" and "p_nom * p_min_pu", i.e., by limits defined per unit of the nominal power p_nom. I would like to ask how to limit the maximum output of a generator in the case of purely solving power flow analysis using network.pf().

Many thanks.

Best wishes,

Bo-Bin, Xiao
