Dec 1, 2025December 2025 monthly performance summary for oemof.solph: Consolidated time-series handling and data preparation for energy modeling, enabling unified support for uneven and even time series with improved reshaping and data prep workflows. Implemented a new input data module for temperature and energy demand to streamline baseline data preparation. Added PV time-series normalization and analysis to quantify solar generation and prep data for downstream optimization. Implemented pricing and cost data modeling for energy systems, including year-by-year cost data to 2065, kWh-based pricing series, and integration with energy sources and converters. Performed a codebase refactor to improve readability and consistency, aligning parameters and data structures. Fixed PV time-series normalization unit to W/kWp for accurate reporting. These changes deliver higher modeling accuracy, longer planning horizons, and improved developer experience.
