ClimateCompatibleGrowth/CLEWs-Kenya

# CLEWs-Kenya This repository presents a workflow using open-source energy models explicitly developed for Kenya. The first model is the Whole Energy System for Kenya (WESM), encompassing power generation, industrial, and transportation sectors, among others. The second model is a Climate, Land, Energy, and Water system (CLEWs) model, focusing on intricate interdependencies between the energy and land systems within the Kenyan context. The CLEWs model presents the interlinkages evident in sectors such as cooking (representing energy) and agriculture (representing land). While both models address aspects of the energy system, the CLEWs model uniquely integrates additional dimensions such as land and water systems. Merging these models has the potential to capture additional interactions between various systems. For instance, the utilization of fossil fuels extends beyond energy generation to activities in the land and water domains, including mechanization and pumping, respectively. Similarly, electricity finds application in residential settings for irrigation and public water distribution, showcasing interdependencies across sectors. *Figure 1. Merging WESM-CLEWs workflow* Figure 3 provides an overview of the process involved in merging both models. The units in both models are similar; for example, technology costs are given in millions of dollars per gigawatt (MM⁄GW). Fuel costs are given in millions of dollars per petajoule (MM⁄PJ). Once both models are in *.CSV format, the _snakemake_ file attached is used to: * Read the common technologies (tech) and fuels. Table 1 shows the common tech and fuel found in both models. * Update the technology and fuel names in the CLEWs model. For instance, change the fuel name 'ELC' in the CLEWs model to 'RESELC,' which is the electricity provided after transmission and distribution in the WESM. * Delete repeated common technologies: IMPDSL, IMPELC, IMPKER, IMPLPG in the CLEWs model. * Update the Region name from the CLEWs m …
