This PR contains a jupyter notebook that builds a simple (woefully incomplete) model of Illinois. However, I think it provides a structure on which others can begin to contribute (@lshaver?).

What the model contains:

  • Demand data for the ComEd zone of PJM and MISO Zone 4.
  • Technology data maintained by PyPSA
  • A single generator (open cycle gas turbine / OCGT)

What the model does NOT include:

  • A transmission line connecting the two regions
  • A complete set of generators
    • nuclear
    • coal
    • combined-cycle gas
    • onshore wind
    • offshore wind
    • utility scale solar
    • community solar
    • rooftop solar
    • storage options
  • Technology data and costs from NREL
  • Life-cycle carbon intensities for all technologies
  • Time series data for the availability of solar and wind resources
  • Existing generators (although the data are included in this PR, I did not add them to the model)
  • Only models a single "year" (i.e., only one set of snapshots, there is no multi-year time horizon)
  • Due to the above, there are no scheduled closures, either.
  • Likely more things which are escaping my mind right now.

From this PR, we can also create a set of specific issues and tasks to cross off one-by-one (and facilitate sharing of tasks).
