Welcome to eELib’s documentation!

The eELib (elenia Energy Library) is the software tool for simulations concerning future power systems for prosumers. The library with its functionalities and models can be used for various simulative investigations regarding research or current challenges in the field of a distributed electrical power system.

The goal of the eELib is creating a model library that is suitable for solving energy-related questions around prosumers (consumers that are now also producing energy). This includes, among other things, the …

  • … creation and consideration of different energy supply scenarios (on building, district and grid level, among others with different penetration levels of distributed facilities like PV).

  • … comparison of different operating strategies for energy management systems, including e.g. variable tariffs, multi-use concepts, operator models or schedule-based flexibility.

  • … investigation of the impacts and interactions of prosumer households (e.g., sector coupling and electrification) with the power grid to identify violations of grid limits.

  • … calculating the economic values of different use cases and strategies for components and systems.

  • … investigation of innovative marketing strategies of market players in the spot and balancing power markets.
