Description of the issue

For long-term energy scenarios, aggregate categories of nameplate capacity are needed since variables reported are about aggregated capacity for individual technologies or energy carriers.

Ideas of solution

  • Installed capacity is a power capacity that represents the sum of the nameplate capacities of all operational energy-converting units of a given technology, carrier, or region at a specific point in time. Axioms: quantity value of some nameplate capacity has spatial region some spatial region covers energy carrier some energy carrier or covers technology some technology

    • Cumulative capacity is an installed capacity that represents the total of all nameplate capacities of energy-converting units installed up to and including a given date, regardless of commissioning period.

    • has ending time some ending time

    • Newly installed capacity is an installed capacity that represents the nameplate capacities of energy-converting units commissioned within a defined time period.

    • has start time some start time

    • has ending time some ending time

Workflow checklist

  • [ ] I discussed the issue with someone else than me before working on a solution
  • [ ] I already read the latest version of the workflow for this repository
  • [ ] The goal of this ontology is clear to me

I am aware that

  • [ ] every entry in the ontology should have a definition
  • [ ] classes should arise from concepts rather than from words
