While we couldn’t hold back ourselves and just announced the upcoming 2027.02 oemof user meeting right when the date was fixed, it is now time to reflect the developer meeting we just had last week.
Recognising the fact that there is a number of packages build upon oemof tools, we started with an overview giving insights into several of them. The idea is that we can move common concepts from the application level to the framework level, lowering the maintenance burden for all of us while offering a more feature-rich base package also for new users. There were
- OpenPlan, a graphical user interface for solph,
- eesyplan, the backend for OpenPlan,
- MTRESS, which evolves from a solph preprocessor to a solph dialect,
- owp-tool, a district heating portfolio optimisation dashboard, and
- heatpumps, a heat pump design dashboard based on TESPy.
