“…Energy modeling tools are widely used to support energy planning and decisionmaking. They provide a comprehensive and systematic approach to analyzing and evaluating different energy scenarios and ensuring energy policies are aligned with national (and or regional) energy needs, signaling where and how to invest in the energy sector [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. These tools simulate and/or optimize energy supply and demand systems to determine cost-effective and sustainable energy mixes.…”

“…These modeling tools been used for financial mobilization, national development strategies, and national communications. OSeMOSYS is widely recognized for its ability to model the entire energy system or individual energy sectors-including supply, transformation, distribution, and end-use demand-and optimize the system to determine the least-cost energy mix [20][21][22][23]. IRENA FlexTool, on the other hand, is specifically designed to analyze power system flexibility.…”

“…Finally, OSeMOSYS is designed to be interoperable with other modeling tools and data sources, facilitating integration into existing modeling frameworks and workflows. Some examples, of many, include the integration of OSeMOSYS with a computable general equilibrium model [29], with an input-output model [15][16][17][18], as a basis for the development of a widely accepted [19] integrated climate-, land-, energy-, and water-system approach, an optimization with OSeMOSYS-PuLP [20], with OSeMOSYS-OnSSET [21], and finally OSeMOSYS-FlexTool integration [22,23]. These advantages make OSeMOSYS a potent and accessible tool for modeling energy systems and assessing policy and investment decisions.…”

This paper presents an innovative approach to addressing critical global challenges in long-term energy planning for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The paper proposes and tests an international enabling environment, a delivery ecosystem, and a community of practice. These components are integrated into workflows that yield four self-sustaining capacity-development outcomes. Planning long-term energy strategies in LMICs is particularly challenging due to limited national agency and poor international coordination. While outsourcing energy planning to foreign experts may appear to be a viable solution, it can lead to a reduction in government agency (the ability of a government to make its own informed analysis and decisions). Additionally, studies commissioned by external experts may have conflicting terms of reference, and a lack of familiarity with local conditions can result in misrepresentations of on-the-ground realities. It is argued here that enhancing national agency and analytical capacity can improve coordination and lead to more robust planning across line ministries and technical assistance (TA) providers. Moreover, the prevailing consulting model hampers the release and accessibility of underlying analytics, making it difficult to retrieve, reuse, and reconstruct consultant outputs. The absence of interoperability among outputs from various consultants hinders the ability to combine and audit the insights they provide. To overcome these challenges, five strategic principles for energy planning in LMICs have been introduced and developed in collaboration with 21 international and research organizations, including the AfDB, IEA, IRENA, IAEA, UNDP, UNECA, the World Bank, and WRI. These principles prioritize national ownership, coherence and inclusivity, capacity, robustness, transparency and accessibility. In this enabling environment, a unique delivery ecosystem consisting of knowledge products and activities is established. The paper focuses on two key knowledge products as examples of this ecosystem: the open-source energy modeling system (OSeMOSYS) and the power system flexibility tool (IRENA FlexTool). These ecosystem elements are designed to meet user-friendliness, retrievability, reusability, reconstructability, repeatability, interoperability, and audibility (U4RIA) goals. To ensure the sustainability of this ecosystem, OpTIMUS is introduced—a community of practice dedicated to maintaining, supporting, expanding, and nurturing the elements within the ecosystem. Among other ecosystem elements, training and research initiatives are introduced, namely the Energy Modelling Platform for Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, and Asia-Pacific as well as the ICTP Joint Summer School on Modelling Tools for Sustainable Development. Once deployed via workflows, the preliminary outcomes of these capacity-development learning pathways show promise. Further investigation is necessary to evaluate their long-term impacts, scalability, replication, and deployment costs.

The climate crisis requires developing countries to urgently decarbonize energy systems and mobilize finance while balancing competing priorities such as economic growth, energy security, environmental sustainability, and social development. However, many developing countries face challenges in developing long-term energy planning strategies, including limited capacity and reliance on external consultants. To address these issues, 21 international organizations and research institutions have developed five strategic principles for energy planning: national ownership, coherence and inclusivity, human capacity development, analysis robustness, and transparency and accessibility of data and tools. This paper discusses joint efforts to promote and apply these principles using science-based evidence and analytical modelling tools, such as the Open Source Energy Modelling System (OSeMOSYS) and the power system IRENA FlexTool. These tools are part of a suite of emerging modelling tools to support climate-compatible development policies and have been included in accessible teaching material, online courses, summer schools, and capacity development programs.
