Climate2Energy: a framework to consistently include climate change into energy system modeling Open
Supply and demand in future energy systems depend on the weather. We therefore need to quantify how climate change and variability impact energy systems. Here, we present Climate2Energy (C2E), a framework to consistently convert climate mo…
