Germany-first open energy register
Which energy problems have real open references?
Search public problems and tracked references for batteries, forecasting, MaStR access, grid models, demand response, open solvers, and related energy infrastructure.
Examples and seed references
Start with these 23 tracked references. Some cards still need source or licence review.
| Area | Seed references | What this illustrates |
|---|---|---|
| Battery revenue and trading | ISEA Battery Revenue Index, GigaStorage Battery Trading Benchmark, enspired Portfolio Performance | Benchmark, trading benchmark, and public commercial disclosure. |
| Forecasting | OpenSTEF | Reproducible forecasting method. |
| Market simulation | ASSUME | Agent-based market simulation. |
| Grid modelling | PyPSA, LF Energy Power Grid Model | Open modelling and grid-analysis infrastructure. |
| Demand response and flexibility | OpenLEADR, FlexMeasures, OpenEMS | Event, flexibility, and energy-management tooling. |
| MaStR and asset registries | Official Marktstammdatenregister, open-MaStR, MaStR MCP Server, bundesAPI Marktstammdaten API, Marktstammdatenregister.dev | Registry, dataset access, API description, and AI-facing interface. |
| Shared terminology | Open Energy Ontology | Shared vocabulary and schema work. |
| Open optimisation stack | HiGHS, Pyomo, JuMP, Google OR-Tools, COIN-OR CBC, SCIP | Energy-enabling infrastructure for reproducible optimisation. |
| Tool health and adoption | Open Energy Modelling Tool Tracker | Tool inventory, repository metrics, documentation links, and community-activity signals. |
| Source ledgers | EP-702 and the source-ledger template | Source, query, timestamp, licence, result count, hash, and caveats. |
Open code, open data, public methodology, AI interfaces, reproducible benchmarks, and commercial disclosures can all help the energy transition, but they are not the same thing. Know a better source or a missing open reference? Open an issue or pull request.

Review track
Review wanted
Listed references are starting points, not endorsements. A useful review can be one checked URL, one licence clarification, or one corrected caveat.

Status
- Open: problem stated, no accepted open reference.
- Partial: meaningful progress, but important gaps remain.
- Reference available: useful public reference exists.
- Solved for scope: open reference exists for a narrow stated scope.
Open-Solution Level
- 0: no accepted open reference.
- 3: public methodology.
- 4: open code.
- 5: reproducible benchmark.
- 6: open reference infrastructure.
Evidence
- A: open code, data, reproducible result, independent review.
- B: open code, documented method, sample data.
- C: public method or figures, limited reproducibility.
- D: public claim or unclear detail.
