Recipes¶

Short, focused code snippets showing how to do specific things in FlixOpt. Unlike full examples, recipes focus on a single concept.

Available Recipes¶

• Plotting Custom Data - Create faceted plots with your own xarray data using Plotly Express

Planned Topics¶

• Storage Patterns - Batteries, thermal storage, seasonal storage
• Multi-Criteria Optimization - Balance multiple objectives
• Data I/O - Loading time series from CSV, databases, APIs
• Data Manipulation - Common xarray operations for parameterization and analysis
• Investment Optimization - Size optimization strategies
• Renewable Integration - Solar, wind capacity optimization
• Status Constraints - Minimum runtime, startup costs
• Large-Scale Problems - Segmented and aggregated calculations
• Custom Constraints - Extend models with linopy
• Domain-Specific Patterns - District heating, microgrids, industrial processes
