“Energy Demand changes Induced by Technological and Social innovations (EDITS)”

Project information

• Website: https://iiasa.ac.at/projects/edits

• Acknowledgement:

  [Work] was supported by funding from the Energy Demand changes Induced by Technological and Social innovations (EDITS) project, which is part of the initiative coordinated by the Research Institute of Innovative Technology for the Earth (RITE) and International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), and funded by the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI), Japan.

• The EDITS project funds many activities, only a few of which are related to message_ix_models. This code, data, and documentation concern only this subset; at the moment, specifically the Model Complementarity Exercise (MCE) activity related to transportation and involving the three models:

  • PASTA —operated by the International Transport Forum.

  • MESSAGEix-Transport —operated by IIASA.

  • DNE21+ —operated by RITE.

  See GH #384 for additional detail.

Usage

The code requires:

1. A file named pasta.csv. This file contains projected activity data from the PASTA ‘demand’ components.

   To place this file in the right location, run:

   $ mix-models config show
   

   The output should include lines like:

   Configuration path: /home/username/.local/share/ixmp/config.json
   
   {
     ...
     "message_local_data": "/home/username/path/to/local/data",
     ...
   }
   

   …where path/to/local/data is some directory on your system containing local data. If you do not have such a directory, you can create one (wherever you like) and run mix-models config set message_local_data /home/username/path/to/local/data to store it in your configuration.

   The file pasta.csv goes in a subdirectory named edits/.

Then use the command line:

$ mix-models edits --help
