Summary

The PyPSA project provides a Python framework, primarily led by TU Berlin, for simulating and optimizing modern power systems. Key components include:

* PyPSA: The core framework itself, focused on power system analysis.
* Linopy: A linear optimization tool for handling multi-dimensional variables.
* Atlite: A lightweight Python package for calculating renewable power potentials and time series data.
* Map Your Grid: A community-driven initiative mapping global electrical grids to accelerate the energy transition.
* Powerplantmatching: A toolset for cleaning and combining power plant databases.
* Technology Data: A compilation of assumptions on energy system technologies.
* PyPSA Models: Several open-source, sector-coupled models built upon PyPSA, including PyPSA-Earth, PyPSA-Eur, PyPSA-USA, and PyPSA-DE, representing various geographic regions (global, Europe, USA, Germany).

The project boasts a vibrant community with many contributors and a growing list of cited publications focusing on energy system modeling and optimization.
