This is the code used for modelling, analysing and plotting the figures for the final project of Economics of Climate Change and Modelling Scenarios (Politecnico di Milano, 2021-2022).
Through the open source IAM OSeMOSYS, we aim to study different scenarios to see if Italy can become energy independent. In particular, we consider 3 year targets: 5, 10, and 15 years. Since the model starts now (2022), this corresponds to the final years 2027, 2032, and 2037.
To following technologies are taken into account:
- Photovoltaic (PHO)
- Geothermal (GEO)
- Wind of shore (WOF)
- Wind on shore (WON)
- Concentrated solar power (CSP)
- Hydroelectric power plants (HYE)
- Waste to energy (WTE)
- Combined gas cycle (CGC)
- Pumped storage (PPS)
- Coal power plants (CPP)
- Nuclear power plants (NUC)
the following fuels:
- Electricity (ELC)
- Natural gas (NAT)
- Coal (COA)
- Uranium (URN)
- Urban waste (UBW)
and the following imports and own productions:
- Electricity imports (IMPELC)
- Natural gas imports (IMPNAT)
- Coal imports (IMPCOA)
- Uranium imports (IMPURA)
- Urban waste own production (OWNUBW)
The code is based to the following energy diagram
Open osemosys.gms and specify the model scenario.
To plot, save some data as name_scenario_target.csv. For e.g. annualActivityByTechnology_base_5.csv. Run the first block of plot_all_years.R and the plotting block you are interested in.
