amplify-model 0.1.2

Amplify (abstract multi-purpose-limited flexibility) is a model for operational flexibility remaining after a primary application is fullfilled by distributed energy resources.

Amplify

Getting started

Amplify can be installed via pip install amplify-model. Then, the model can be used in an existing project by calling from amplify.src.flex_calculation import FlexCalculator.

Alternatively, the repo can of course be cloned. The source code of Amplify lies under amplify/src/flex_calculation.py. Its results require the data_classes.py file. The calculation relies only on basic python modules.

Tests

The basic tests lie under amplify/tests/unit_tests. They can be started by calling pytest.

• test_total_flex_calculation.py: Assert valid flexibility calculation
• test_ppr_detection.py: Validate problem detection
• test_accept_short_trades_scenarios.py: Verify valid sizing of multi purpose obligations with MPOs lasting single time intervals
• test_accept_long_trades_scenarios.py: Verify valid sizing of multi purpose obligations with MPOs lasting more than one time interval (contains multiple scenarios)

---

• full_result_test_accept_long_trades_scenarios.txt: Contains result of full accept long trades test. For all failed tests, some information is given as well as a short summary.

Requirements

Until now, Amplify only requires the pytest module, which can be installed via pip.
