PyPSA-Earth-Sec v0.0.1 is the first pre-release of the model and covers only one country, Morocco, in a simplistic representation of 4 and 15 nodes. This version marks the first milestone towards a reliable PyPSA-Earth-Sec model and shall not be used for any sort of analysis in its current form.

A prerequisite for a successful model run is a power-sector network generated using pypsa-africa and placed in the directory /Networks

This version includes the following energy carriers: electricity, hydrogen, fossil gas and fossil oil as well as carbon in the form of gas emissions and feed-stock for the synthesis of the carriers. The demand sectors covered are: residential, industry, land transport, aviation and shipping. Currently, no real demand data is included for the country inspected, instead, dummy datasets are generated and used.

The diagram below depicts one representative clustered node showing the combination of carriers and sectors covered in the model as well as the generation and conversion technologies included.
