Building Resilient Integrated, Decarbonized Gas-Electric Systems (BRIDGES) Version: 0.0 Author: Gregory Von Wald Objective: To permit integrated design and operations optimization for system planning of integrated public-interest (i.e., gas and electric) energy systems across time horizons with declining constraints on greenhouse gas emissions. Model minimizes the present value of total system costs (investment plus operations) across a multi-year investment time horizon, with co-optimized system operations simulated for a set of weighted, representative periods (e.g., days) composed of operational time steps (e.g., hours)

This is the toy model, with cold climate case data, used in "Optimal gas-electric energy system decarbonization planning" by Gregory Von Wald, Kaarthik Sundar, Evan Sherwin, Anatoly Zlotnik, and Adam Brandt. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.adapen.2022.100086
