The Open Energy Ontology - v2.6.0

Most important additions and changes relate to the following topics:

• introduction of the "study descriptor" annotation for the oekg (#1950)
• introduction of the oeo-tasks module (#1940). The module is not (yet) imported into oeo.omn / oeo-full, though. Its purpose is to descripe tasks and common workflows of the energy systems modelling domain. The first set of tasks focus on wind turbine placement. The module may be extended in the future.
• introduction of several aspects of modelling uncertainties

Most important additions and changes relate to the following topics:

• German labels have been added to many classes in addition to the English main labels.
• Some quantity / quantity values pairs have been updated, amongst others prize, cost and other socioeconomic entities.
• Distinguish between physical units (equivalent to uo:unit) and other units.
• Policy instrument functions were introduced to enable a multi-hierarchical structure of policy instruments.
• To track the OEO history consistently, the IAO annotation "term tracker item" has been replaced by a new oeo-specific annotation "term tracker annotation".
• The following classes and relations have been made obsolete: "has bearer" which was replaced by the RO relation "characteristic of", "economic value", "economic value of" and "has economic value".

The Open Energy Ontology - v2.0.1

Hotfix of Release 2.0.0

Duplicate SubClassOf Annotations were removed, which were accidentially imported from external ontologies and broke the BFO hierarchy.

The Open Energy Ontology - v2.0.0

Major stuctural changes

For the version 2.0.0 we especially did some major structural changes on the OEO. Two new modules were introduced:

• The first one, oeo-sector, is a module on the same hierarchical level as the other content-related modules, i.e. oeo-physical, oeo-model and oeo-social. All sector-related entities were moved there from oeo-social.
• The second one, oeo-shared-axioms, is a module that imports the four content-related modules and contains all axioms that are introduced across modules.

This caused a lot of movement of entities, especially from oeo-shared. Many classes were moved back to their original module. This restructuring was done to foster the modularity, which makes the implementation easier and more error-prone. Yet, we had to break with the rule, that all axioms should live in the same module as their class of declaration. The full axiomatisation of a class is now only provided if the module oeo-shared-axioms is used. See also the wiki article on the modules of the OEO.

Further, the import process for UO and OMO were updated. All scripts and tools not essential for the building routine moved to a seperate repository. And finally, english language labels were added to (english) definitions and labels, to allow other language extentions in the future.

Content-related changes

We added a lot of classes that are relevant for the OEKG development, i.e. technologies (#1572) and descriptors for scenario studies (https://github.com/OpenEnergyPlatform/oekg/issues/19).
