This dataset contains the integrated input parameters used for modelling the South African electricity sector from 2020 to 2050. The data is organized into two primary spreadsheets:
Demand Modelling (MAED): Contains the socio-economic and technical input parameters used to generate long-term electricity demand projections. These projections serve as the demand-side basis for the supply-side modelling.
Supply-Side Modelling (OSeMOSYS): Includes techno-economic data and assumptions for the South African electricity sector.
The dataset also includes the model code for the baseline and 4 scenarios for the OSeMOSYS supply-side model:
Baseline: Business-As-Usual
Scenario 1: Net Zero 2050
Scenario 2: IRP 2023 Investment Constraints
Scenario 3: High Demand Net Zero 2050
Scenario 4: High Demand IRP 2023 Investment Constraints
; and the MAED demand-side model model code for two scenarios:
Baseline
High Demand
