Lab 3: Jupyter notebook preparation

[AgnesBelt]

From the SimpleEnergyModel folder under lab3_agnese:
https://github.com/KTH-dESA/MJ2383/tree/lab3_agnese/SimpleEnergyModel

• Linking the data files for Lab3 to the related Jupyter Notebook
• Adding the visualisation part: see script here https://github.com/KTH-dESA/MJ2383/blob/lab3_agnese/SimpleEnergyModel/Visualisation.py

Comments to Lab3 Jupiter Notebook:

• I would remove the answer to the first Q about marginal cost of gas and move it into a Canvas questionnaire and use it as evaluation material
• Should we explain better what OutputActivityRatio is? Not sure how much knowledge the students have about OSeMOSYS
• Second Q about SEC_EL and FEL, maybe could be moved also to Canvas.
• How is ProductionDual obtained? Maybe worth explain it a bit more, since this is not a standard variable that we can look for e.g. in the OSeMOSYS documentation
• We should mention at the beginning that the demand is changing along the year and that we have 6 time slices with different demands for different times of the year. Otherwise under Marginal Prices it is not clear what WN and timeslice refer to.
• Under Marginal Prices, in the graph showing marginal_cost vs supply there is plotted an arrow pointing and saying marginal cost of electricity, but there is not line graph that shows the actual marginal cost of electricity - what do we want to highlight? Is the line graph missing?
• Under “Running the model to extract the marginal cost of production of electricity”, there are two graphs of value vs demand: it is not clear what do we want to show. They seem to be identical. I removed one.
• Does the demand change while we change the model? If yes, how does it change at all? Should be clarified.
• In Stage 2: should we design it so that the students need to calculate the cost/supply course and provide the marginal cost in Canvas (again, as evaluation)?
• In Stage 4: why does the model run print the results in the Jupiter notebook, and is not just showing the loading bar as previously?
