Packaged options#

The option keys accepted by App config dicts, generated from the packaged data files and source constants. The same lists are available at the command line via breos list <category> (add --json for machine-readable output).

Packaged presets exist to make BREOS runnable out of the box. For a real study, review Required Inputs and replace the assumptions that matter to your project.

Locations#

Preset keys for the location config key, from breos/data/configs/locations.json. Any other site works with a coordinate dict — see Recipes.

Load profiles#

Keys for the load_profile config key, from breos.load_profiles.PROFILE_NAMES. Non-bundled profiles need their source CSVs supplied through rlp_directory — see Load Profile Data for expected filenames and licensing notes. The bdew_h0 alias maps to the bundled demandlib-shaped H0 example; direct BDEW H0 2025 is key 7 and requires an external CSV.
