Open and Reproducible Use Cases for Energy (ORUCE) methodology in systems design and operation: a dwelling photovoltaic self-consumption example.

Historical energy system modelling as well the current mainstream approaches are closed and proprietary. Yet, open can be of particular interest in building simulation community. This article presents Open Reproducible Use Cases for Energy (ORUCE) methodology, thought a transferable workflow to make principles advantages accessible. After underlining importance best practices, ORUCE methodology is presented first time, applied design operation dwelling photovoltaic selfconsumption system. Finally, quantitative results application qualitative discussed.
