This repository contains analysis to estimate the emissions savings potential of energy-flexible operation for example industrial load (e.g. EAF steel, refrigerated warehouse).
It leverages code from prior work from (add Rao/Chapin citation) in the codebase flex-limits (https://github.com/we3lab/flex-limits)
Navigate to your desired directory and run the following from the command line interface:
- Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/we3lab/flex-industrial-emissions.git
- Install packages
python setup.py install
