Decision Optimization of Low-Carbon Power-Hydrogen Nexus (DOLPHYN)

DOLPHYN is a configurable, open source energy system optimization model developed to explore interactions between multiple energy vectors and emerging technologies across their supply chains as part of a future integrated low-carbon energy system.

Introduction

The DOLPHYN model evaluates investments and operations across the electricity and Hydrogen (H2) supply chains, including production, storage, transmission, conditioning, and end-use consumption. Hourly modeling of electrolyzers, fuel cells, and hydrogen storage could be achieved using the DOLPHYN model. Coupled with power grid model GenX, the DOLPHYN model is able to explore the synergies and trade-offs between the power and hydrogen sectors.

Repository

The code is hosted on the github repository Dolphyn.jl.
