PyHub

A program to solve an energy hub model in Python.

Requirements

• Python 3.7.3
• pip for Python 3.7.3
• GLPK or another solver supported by PyLP

Running a Model

To run a energy hub model, use the General_input.xlsx file to enter your data. The data must be in the same format.

Check the config.yaml file to see if the input file and output file is where you want to load and output the results of the model respectively.

While inside the config.yaml file, be sure to set the settings for using a specific solver that is installed on your system. The default one is glpk with some options, but you can set it to any other solver that is supported by PyLP.

Once you have configured the config.yaml file, run:

python run.py

to solve the model. The results should be in the file you specified in config.yaml.
