reV-ReEDS: command not found after installing reVX

[ODOU]

I am trying to perform the final step described here: https://nrel.github.io/reVX/misc/examples.reeds.html to ingest the outputs into a REEDS-ready format, after successfully running reV with rep_profiles over my study area.
However, the command returns “command not found.” Could you please advise how to get this step done?

(revx) [xxxxxxxxx@xxxxxreVX]$ reV-rpm
Usage: reV-rpm [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

  RPM Command Line Interface

Options:
  --version       Show the version and exit.
  -n, --name STR  Job name. Default is "RPM".  [default: RPM]
  -v, --verbose   Flag to turn on debug logging. Default is not verbose.
  --help          Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  from-config        Run reVX-rpm from a config.
  local              Run reVX-REEDS on local hardware.
  valid-config-keys  Echo the valid RPM config keys
(revx) [xxxx@xxxxxx reVX]$ reV-ReEDS
-bash: reV-ReEDS: command not found

Hey there,

The ReEDS command line and code has been deprecated for several years now (relevant PR). I'll make a note to remove the outdated example.

These days, the ReEDS model should be able to ingest the reV supply curves (and representative profile H5's) directly.

Are you trying to achieve some format in particular?

P.S. If for some reason you definitely need this functionality, you could downgrade reVX to version 0.3.48 or lower to access this CLI command

Thanks @ppinchuk. I was able to do some zoning assessment using reV over West Africa for UPV and wind_ons and to generate the representative profiles. I’m now trying to format the generated H5 file to match the sample file I see at inputs/variability/multi_year/upv-open_ba.h5 in the ReEDS model for my case study. I also came across the deprecated feature for reV–ReEDS-ready formatting. But now it is clear it is outdated.

My file looks this

while h5 file in the existing REEDS model look a bit different.

Since file structure are different, it may impact the runs. See attached H5 files for your reference.
Uploading Rep_Profiles_WestAfrica.zip…

Interesting. I took a quick glance at the old code and I don't think it would have given you this output format anyway, so we may have even saved some time there.

I've never seen the structure of the second file you showed, and unfortunately I can't seem to be able to open your attachment to take a look for myself.

If I had to guess, the index in the bottom picture is the rev_profiels_0 output in the top H5. I don't know about the rest. Can you post the shapes of each of the bottom datasets and a few sentries from them? that might help illuminate what kind of data they contain.

I think it's likely that you already have the data you need, it may just need to be reshaped slightly

My h5 file.

Existing H5 file.

Zip attached again. hope it works now.

So my guess is that the "1_p1", "2_p1", etc. are just labels for the locations. You also have labels for the locations in your rep profiles file, which are in the rev_summary dataset. In there, each row represents a single location and contains all the information you would need for each point, You could easily reduce this to mimic "columns" by just pulling some label for each point.

As I said before, the actual data is in rep_profiles_0, which contains the capacity factor profile for each location.

My suggestion for you is to try to modify your rep profiles H5 to match the format of the input H5 file and run it through to model to see if you get any issues.

Thanks for the guidance. it works.
