pyeutl

The European Transaction Log (EUTL) is the backbone of the European Union Emissions Trading System (EUETS). It implements the transfer of emission allowances between parties active in the EUETS. The EUTL provides data on regulated installations, their emissions as well as transfers of allowances. The pre-processed data can be downloaded on EUETS.INFO.

Provided these data, this pyeutl package provides two different approaches to make these data operational:

1. An simple Object Relational Mapper (ORM) based on a postgres database.
2. Methods to directly access data provided in the zip-file available at EUETS.INFO.

This package is currently under development and backward compatibility is therefore not granted.

Installation

Dependencies are managed using poetry. So the most easy way to install pyeutl is to use pip in your python environment. The minimum python version has to be 3.11.

pip install git+https://github.com/jabrell/pyeutl.git

Documentation is currently provided in a series of jupyter notebooks.
