Lea Hayez contributed to the remindmodel/remind repository by developing and refining climate policy modeling features over a three-month period. She extended the NPi2025 scenario framework, introducing future-year targets and updating data inputs and technology bounds using GAMS and CSV for robust scenario analysis. Her work included aligning policy defaults, expanding climate scenario input files, and cleaning configuration assets to improve reproducibility and maintainability. Through careful code refactoring, configuration management, and disciplined version control, Lea ensured consistent assumptions across model scripts and data files, reducing maintenance overhead and supporting reliable 2025 scenario runs for both data contributors and new engineers.

March 2025 monthly summary for remindmodel/remind: Strengthened modeling reproducibility and business value by aligning policy defaults for NPi2025, expanding climate scenario inputs, and cleaning configuration assets. Key outcomes: 1) NPi2025 default policy and scenario configuration aligned across main.gms and CSV inputs, with 7 commits to implement defaults, merge conflict resolution, and related fixes. 2) Introduced new climate scenario input data file for 2025 to broaden scenario coverage. 3) Removed obsolete test configuration file to reduce clutter and potential confusion. Technologies/skills demonstrated include GAMS-based scripting, CSV/config management, and disciplined Git-based version control. Overall impact: more reliable, reproducible 2025 scenario runs, faster onboarding for new engineers, and reduced maintenance overhead.

February 2025: Delivered the NPi2025 extension to the remind model, introducing future-year targets (2025+) with updated data inputs and bounds. Refined wind bound handling (windon/windoff) and removed hydrogen and coal bounds where appropriate; updated geothermal potential scaling to support NPi2025 targets in OAS and NEU regions; clarified H2-to-electricity scope and tidied GAMS parameter declarations. This work improves model reliability, data alignment with REN shares, and long-term planning accuracy. Code quality and reviews were addressed per Lavinia, ensuring clean, well-documented changes for stakeholders.
