# NEMO: Next Energy Modeling system for Optimization

NEMO is a high performance, open-source energy system optimization modeling tool developed in [Julia](https://julialang.org/).  It is intended for users who seek substantial optimization capabilities without the financial burden of proprietary software or the performance bottlenecks of common open-source alternatives. Key features of NEMO include:

- Least-cost optimization of energy supply and demand

- Support for multiple regions and regional trade

- Modeling of energy storage

- Nodal network simulations and modeling of power and pipeline flow

- Modeling of emissions and emission constraints (including carbon pricing and pollutant externalities)

- Modeling of renewable energy targets

- Support for simulating selected years in a modeling period

- Parallel processing

- Support for multiple solvers: [Cbc](https://github.com/coin-or/Cbc), [CPLEX](https://www.ibm.com/analytics/cplex-optimizer), [GLPK](https://www.gnu.org/software/glpk/), [Gurobi](https://www.gurobi.com/), [HiGHS](https://highs.dev/), [Mosek](https://www.mosek.com/), and [Xpress](https://www.fico.com/en/products/fico-xpress-optimization)

- Optimization warm starts

- [SQLite](https://www.sqlite.org/) data store

- Numerous performance tuning options

NEMO can be used in command line mode or with the [Low Emissions Analysis Platform](https://leap.sei.org/) (LEAP - formerly the Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning system) as a graphical user interface.

Development of NEMO is led by the Energy Modeling Program at the [Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI)](https://www.sei.org/).
