For the last three days, we were meeting at HTW in Berlin for our semi-annual developer meeting. Here are some of the key results:
- We plan to have an improved lecture/ tutorial session, that might eventually develop into a summer school.
- There will be a release of oemof.solph mid November. It will include whatever is done until then.
- Costs calculations in oemof.solph will be aligned with VDI 2067. We plan to distinguish between energy-related costs (€/kWh), capacity related operational costs (€/kW/a), fixed operational costs (€/a) for OPEX and capacity related investment costs (€/kW/a) as well as an investment cost offset (€/a) for CAPEX. At the moment, we group by units, and thus have CAPEX and OPEX mixed.
- The
SubNetworks, we decided to have at the oemof 2025.02 developer meeting are functional, an example is merged in dev. - There is a software implementing robust optimisation. We plan to release something along these lines (as rolph).
- Some of use will create an awareness concept. For upcoming meetings, there will be an awareness team you can contact if you do feel uncomfortable because of other participants or externals. We will also try to organise ourselves so that you can feel save on your trip back to the hotel.
See you next time (in Nordhausen)!
