This is a Talk presented by Stefano Moret and Gauthier Limpens (Imperial College London) in the context of the 2nd Open Energy Modelling Initiative Online Lightning Talk Mini-workshop. 

Abstract: EnergyScope optimises the investment and operating strategy of a multi-sector multi-vector energy system (including electricity, heating and mobility) for a target year. 

The linear programming model has an hourly resolution (using typical days) which makes it suitable for the integration of intermittent renewables, and its concise mathematical formulation and computational efficiency are appropriate for quick scenario assessments as well as uncertainty studies.
