Explanations

Understanding the architecture and design of r2x-plexos.

Overview

R2X PLEXOS is built on the R2X Core framework and provides bidirectional conversion between PLEXOS XML format and R2X systems. The package consists of two main components:

  • Parser: Reads PLEXOS XML files and converts them to R2X system components

  • Exporter: Converts R2X systems back to PLEXOS XML format

Design Principles

  1. Preservation: Round-trip conversion maintains data fidelity

  2. Flexibility: Support for custom configurations and extensions

  3. Validation: Built-in validation for data integrity

  4. Performance: Efficient handling of large models and time series data
