+
101
+ **FlixOpt is a Python framework for optimizing energy and material flow systems** - from district heating networks to industrial production lines, from renewable energy portfolios to supply chain logistics.
102
+
103
+ **Start simple, scale complex:** Build a working optimization model in minutes, then progressively add detail - multi-period investments, stochastic scenarios, custom constraints - without rewriting your code.
104
+
105
+ ---
106
+
107
+ ## 🚀 Quick Start
108
+
109
+ ```bash
110
+ pip install flixopt
111
+ ```
112
+
113
+ That's it! FlixOpt comes with the [HiGHS](https://highs.dev/) solver included. You're ready to optimize.
114
+
115
+ **The basic workflow:**
116
+
117
+ ```python
118
+ import flixopt as fx
119
+
120
+ # 1. Define your system structure
121
+ flow_system = fx.FlowSystem(timesteps)
122
+ flow_system.add_elements(buses, components, effects)
123
+
124
+ # 2. Create and solve
125
+ calculation = fx.FullCalculation("MyModel", flow_system)
126
+ calculation.solve()
127
+
128
+ # 3. Analyze results
129
+ calculation.results.solution
130
+ ```
131
+
132
+ **Get started with real examples:**
133
+ - 📚 [Full Documentation](https://flixopt.github.io/flixopt/latest/)
134
+ - 💡 [Examples Gallery](https://flixopt.github.io/flixopt/latest/examples/) - Complete working examples from simple to complex
135
+ - 🔧 [API Reference](https://flixopt.github.io/flixopt/latest/api-reference/)
136
+
137
+ ---
138
+
139
+ ## 🌟 Why FlixOpt?
140
+
141
+ ### Progressive Enhancement - Your Model Grows With You
142
+
143
+ **Start simple:**
144
+ ```python
145
+ # Basic single-period model
146
+ flow_system = fx.FlowSystem(timesteps)
147
+ boiler = fx.Boiler("Boiler", eta=0.9, ...)
148
+ ```
149
+
150
+ **Add complexity incrementally:**
151
+ - **Investment decisions** → Add `InvestParameters` to components
152
+ - **Multi-period planning** → Add `periods` dimension to FlowSystem
153
+ - **Uncertainty modeling** → Add `scenarios` dimension with probabilities
154
+ - **Custom constraints** → Extend with native linopy syntax
155
+
156
+ **No refactoring required.** Your component definitions stay the same - periods, scenarios, and features are added as dimensions and parameters.
157
+
158
+ → [Learn more about multi-period and stochastic modeling](https://flixopt.github.io/flixopt/latest/user-guide/mathematical-notation/dimensions/)
159
+
160
+ ### For Everyone
161
+
162
+ - **Beginners:** High-level components that "just work"
163
+ - **Experts:** Full access to modify models with linopy
164
+ - **Researchers:** Quick prototyping with customization options
165
+ - **Engineers:** Reliable, tested components without black boxes
166
+ - **Students:** Clear, Pythonic interfaces for learning optimization
167
+
168
+ ### Key Features
169
+
170
+ **Multi-criteria optimization:** Model costs, emissions, resource use - any custom metric. Optimize single objectives or use weighted combinations and ε-constraints.
171
+ → [Effects documentation](https://flixopt.github.io/flixopt/latest/user-guide/mathematical-notation/effects-penalty-objective/)
172
+
173
+ **Performance at any scale:** Choose calculation modes without changing your model - Full, Segmented, or Aggregated (using [TSAM](https://github.com/FZJ-IEK3-VSA/tsam)).
174
+ → [Calculation modes](https://flixopt.github.io/flixopt/latest/api-reference/calculation/)
175
+
176
+ **Built for reproducibility:** Self-contained NetCDF result files with complete model information. Load results months later - everything is preserved.
177
+ → [Results documentation](https://flixopt.github.io/flixopt/latest/api-reference/results/)
178
+
179
+ **Flexible data operations:** Transform FlowSystems with xarray-style operations (`sel()`, `resample()`) for multi-stage optimization.
180
+

182
+
183
+ ## 🎯 What is FlixOpt?
184
+
185
+ ### A General-Purpose Flow Optimization Framework
186
+
187
+ FlixOpt models **any system involving flows and conversions:**
188
+
189
+ - **Energy systems:** District heating/cooling, microgrids, renewable portfolios, sector coupling
190
+ - **Material flows:** Supply chains, production lines, chemical processes
191
+ - **Integrated systems:** Water-energy nexus, industrial symbiosis
192
+
193
+ While energy systems are our primary focus, the same foundation applies universally. This enables coupling different system types within integrated models.
194
+
195
+ ### Modern Foundations
196
+
197
+ Built on [linopy](https://github.com/PyPSA/linopy/) and [xarray](https://github.com/pydata/xarray), FlixOpt delivers **performance** and **transparency**. Full access to variables, constraints, and model structure. Extend anything with native linopy syntax.
198
+
199
+ ### Our Position
200
+
201
+ We bridge the gap between high-level strategic models (like [FINE](https://github.com/FZJ-IEK3-VSA/FINE)) and low-level dispatch tools - similar to [PyPSA](https://docs.pypsa.org/latest/). FlixOpt is the sweet spot for detailed operational planning and long-term investment analysis in the **same framework**.
202
+
203
+ ### Academic Roots
204
+
205
+ Originally developed at [TU Dresden](https://github.com/gewv-tu-dresden) for the SMARTBIOGRID project (funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, FKZ: 03KB159B). FlixOpt evolved from the MATLAB-based flixOptMat framework while incorporating best practices from [oemof/solph](https://github.com/oemof/oemof-solph).
206
+
207
+ ---
208
+
209
+ ## 🛣️ Roadmap
210
+
211
+ **FlixOpt aims to be the most accessible, flexible, and universal Python framework for energy and material flow optimization.** We believe optimization modeling should be approachable for beginners yet powerful for experts, minimizing context switching between different planning horizons.
212
+
213
+ **Current focus:**
214
+ - Enhanced component library (sector coupling, hydrogen, thermal networks)
215
+ - Examples showcasing multi-period and stochastic modeling
216
+ - Advanced result analysis and visualization
217
+
218
+ **Future vision:**
219
+ - Modeling to generate alternatives (MGA) for robust decision-making
220
+ - Advanced stochastic optimization (two-stage, CVaR)
221
+ - Community ecosystem of user-contributed components
222
+
223
+ → [Full roadmap and vision](https://flixopt.github.io/flixopt/latest/roadmap/)

91
- ## 🎯 Vision
92
-
93
- **FlixOpt aims to be the most accessible and flexible Python framework for energy and material flow optimization.**
94
-
95
- We believe that optimization modeling should be **approachable for beginners** yet **powerful for experts**. Too often, frameworks force you to choose between ease of use and flexibility. FlixOpt refuses this compromise.
96
-
97
- ### Where We're Going
98
-
99
- **Short-term goals:**
100
- - **Multi-dimensional modeling**: Full support for multi-period investments and scenario-based stochastic optimization (periods and scenarios are in active development)
101
- - **Enhanced component library**: More pre-built, domain-specific components (sector coupling, hydrogen systems, thermal networks, demand-side management)
102
-
103
- **Medium-term vision:**
104
- - **Modeling to generate alternatives (MGA)**: Built-in support for exploring near-optimal solution spaces to produce more robust, diverse solutions under uncertainty
105
- - **Interactive tutorials**: Browser-based, reactive tutorials for learning FlixOpt without local installation
106
- - **Standardized cost calculations**: Align with industry standards (VDI 2067) for CAPEX/OPEX calculations
107
- - **Advanced result analysis**: Time-series aggregation, automated reporting, and rich visualization options
108
-
109
- **Long-term vision:**
110
- - **Showcase universal applicability**: FlixOpt already handles any flow-based system (supply chains, water networks, production planning, chemical processes) - we need more examples and domain-specific component libraries to demonstrate this
111
- - **Seamless integration**: First-class support for coupling with simulation tools, databases, existing energy system models, and GIS data
112
- - **Robust optimization**: Built-in uncertainty quantification and stochastic programming capabilities
113
- - **Community ecosystem**: Rich library of user-contributed components, examples, and domain-specific extensions
114
- - **Model validation tools**: Automated checks for physical plausibility, data consistency, and common modeling errors
115
-
116
- ### Why FlixOpt Exists
117
-
118
- FlixOpt is a **general-purpose framework for modeling any system involving flows and conversions** - energy, materials, fluids, goods, or data. While energy systems are our primary focus, the same mathematical foundation applies to supply chains, water networks, production lines, and more.
119
-
120
- We bridge the gap between high-level strategic models (like [FINE](https://github.com/FZJ-IEK3-VSA/FINE)) for long-term planning and low-level dispatch tools for operations. FlixOpt is the **sweet spot** for:
121
-
122
- - **Researchers** who need to prototype quickly but may require deep customization later
123
- - **Engineers** who want reliable, tested components without black-box abstractions
124
- - **Students** learning optimization who benefit from clear, Pythonic interfaces
125
- - **Practitioners** who need to move from model to production-ready results
126
- - **Domain experts** from any field where things flow, transform, and need optimizing
127
-
128
- Built on modern foundations ([linopy](https://github.com/PyPSA/linopy/) and [xarray](https://github.com/pydata/xarray)), FlixOpt delivers both **performance** and **transparency**. You can inspect everything, extend anything, and trust that your model does exactly what you designed.
129
-
130
- Originally developed at [TU Dresden](https://github.com/gewv-tu-dresden) for the SMARTBIOGRID project (funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, FKZ: 03KB159B), FlixOpt has evolved from the Matlab-based flixOptMat framework while incorporating the best ideas from [oemof/solph](https://github.com/oemof/oemof-solph).

- ## 🌟 What Makes FlixOpt Different
135
-
136
- ### Start Simple, Scale Complex
137
- Define a working model in minutes with high-level components, then drill down to fine-grained control when needed. No rewriting, no framework switching.
138
-
139
- ```python
140
- import flixopt as fx
141
-
142
- # Simple start
143
- boiler = fx.Boiler("Boiler", eta=0.9, ...)
144
-
145
- # Advanced control when needed - extend with native linopy
146
- boiler.model.add_constraints(custom_constraint, name="my_constraint")
147
- ```
148
-
149
- ### Multi-Criteria Optimization Done Right
150
- Model costs, emissions, resource use, and any custom metric simultaneously as **Effects**. Optimize any single Effect, use weighted combinations, or apply ε-constraints:
151
-
152
- ```python
153
- costs = fx.Effect('costs', '€', 'Total costs',
154
- share_from_temporal={'CO2': 180}) # 180 €/tCO2
155
- co2 = fx.Effect('CO2', 'kg', 'Emissions', maximum_periodic=50000)
156
- ```
157
-
158
- ### Performance at Any Scale
159
- Choose the right calculation mode for your problem:
160
- - **Full** - Maximum accuracy for smaller problems
161
- - **Segmented** - Rolling horizon for large time series
162
- - **Aggregated** - Typical periods using [TSAM](https://github.com/FZJ-IEK3-VSA/tsam) for massive models
163
-
164
- ### Built for Reproducibility
165
- Every result file is self-contained with complete model information. Load it months later and know exactly what you optimized. Export to NetCDF, share with colleagues, archive for compliance.
166
