Session
We introduce the inner workings and use of ReSiE, a new package for the simulation of sector-coupled energy systems with complex non-linear control schemes on the scale of city districts. The package is based on a different mathematical approach than comparable tools in the field of energy system modelling, which typically use MILP. The strengths and weaknesses of this approach are discussed. Furthermore we present some "lessons learned" and how Julia was leveraged to implement the package.
