Citing costs.py

The development of costs.py was the culmination of two papers from the WE3Lab.

The convex formulation of tariff costs for optimizing flexible loads was originally developed for a case study of flexible wastewater treatment plant operation published in Environmental Science & Technology:

Bolorinos, J., Mauter, M. S., & Rajagopal, R. Integrated energy flexibility management at wastewater treatment facilities. Environ. Sci. Technol. 57, 18362-18371. (2023). DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.3c00365

In BibTeX format:

The tariff data format was published in the following data descriptor in Nature Scientific Data:

Chapin, F.T., Bolorinos, J. & Mauter, M.S. Electricity and natural gas tariffs at United States wastewater treatment plants. Sci Data 11, 113 (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41597-023-02886-6

Citing emissions.py

The emissions optimization code was originally developed for co-optimizing costs and emissions at a wastewater treatment plant and published in Environmental Science & Technology:

Chapin, F.T., Wettermark, D., Bolorinos, J. & Mauter, M.S. Load-shifting strategies for cost-effective emission reductions at wastewater facilities Environ. Sci. Technol. 59, 2285-2294 (2025). DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.4c09773

Citing metrics.py

The flexibility metrics come from the following Nature Water paper:

Rao, A. K., Bolorinos, J., Musabandesu, E., Chapin, F. T., & Mauter, M. S. Valuing energy flexibility from water systems. Nat. Water 2, 1028-1037 (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s44221-024-00316-4
