A Tutorial for Using an Open-Source Solver for the Regional Energy Deployment System (ReEDS) Model

Kelly Eurek, Madeline Macmillan, Wesley Cole

Research output: NRELPresentation

Abstract

ReEDS is a publicly available model developed at NREL that can be used to analyze the potential evolution of the U.S. electric power system into the future. ReEDS is formulated as a linear program, written in GAMS, and solved using a linear programming solver (e.g., CPLEX). This tutorial provides context and understanding for the implications of using an open-source solver for ReEDS.
