found and/or fixed a bug, developed a new model feature, have ideas for further
model development, suggestions for improvements or anything else. We are open to
model development or suggestions for improvements. We are open to
any kind of contribution. Our aim is to develop an open, transparent and
meaningful energy-economy-model to get a better
understanding of the underlying processes and possible futures. Join us doing
meaningful energy-economy-model, and to get a better
understanding of the underlying processes and possible futures. Join us in doing
so!
## DEPENDENCIES
Model dependencies **must be publicly available** and should be Open Source.
Development aim is to rather minimize than expand dependencies on non-free
and/or non open source software. That means that besides currently existing
dependencies on GAMS, the GDXRRW R package and the corresponding solvers there
dependencies on GAMS, the `gdxrrw` R package and the corresponding solvers there
should be no additional dependencies of this kind and that these existing
dependencies should be resolved in the future if possible.
