Kaya Boran worked on the RWTH-EBC/districtgenerator repository, focusing on modularizing and refactoring the backend to improve data handling, configuration management, and energy performance analytics. Using Python, Pydantic, and JavaScript, Kaya restructured configuration loading with Pydantic BaseSettings, unified environment variable management, and introduced robust device parameterization. The work included refactoring KPI and CO2 emission calculations for greater modularity and accuracy, streamlining heating profile data flows, and consolidating user profile saving logic. These changes reduced technical debt, improved maintainability, and enabled scalable, testable deployments, directly addressing reliability and extensibility challenges in energy modeling and district heating feature development.

In July 2025, delivered a targeted refactor to the District Generator, improving heating profile data handling and user profile saving; reduced code complexity and maintenance by removing unused imports and the gmlId parameter; consolidated saving logic into a new saveProfiles method; and cleaned up AI-X related changes. This work enhances reliability, data integrity, and future extensibility of heating profile data and user profiles, enabling smoother user experiences and easier downstream integrations.

In May 2025, RWTH-EBC/districtgenerator delivered unified, robust configuration management by migrating to GlobalConfig and Pydantic BaseSettings, consolidating environment handling into a single .env and removing the custom env loading logic. This change reduces misconfigurations, accelerates onboarding, and strengthens deployment reliability. The work consolidated configs and migrated to pydantic-based environment variable handling, supported by two core commits. This lays the groundwork for scalable deployments and improved testability, and enhances maintainability of the districtgenerator configuration subsystem.
