        .. inclusion-intro
        
        **reV** (the Renewable Energy Potential model)
        is an open-source geospatial techno-economic tool that
        estimates renewable energy technical potential (capacity and generation),
        system cost, and supply curves for solar photovoltaics (PV),
        concentrating solar power (CSP), geothermal, and wind energy.
        reV allows researchers to include exhaustive spatial representation
        of the built and natural environment into the generation and cost estimates
        that it computes.
        
        reV is highly dynamic, allowing analysts to assess potential at varying levels
        of detail — from a single site up to an entire continent at temporal resolutions
        ranging from five minutes to hourly, spanning a single year or multiple decades.
        The reV model can (and has been used to) provide broad coverage across large spatial
        extents, including North America, South and Central Asia, the Middle East, South America,
        and South Africa to inform national and international-scale analyses. Still, reV is
        equally well-suited for regional infrastructure and deployment planning and analysis.
        
        
        For a detailed description of reV capabilities and functionality, see the
        `NREL reV technical report <https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy19osti/73067.pdf>`_.
        
        How does reV work?
        ==================
        reV is a set of `Python classes and functions <https://nrel.github.io/reV/_autosummary/reV.html>`_
        that can be executed on HPC systems using `CLI commands <https://nrel.github.io/reV/_cli/cli.html>`_.
        A full reV execution consists of one or more compute modules
        (each consisting of their own Python class/CLI command)
        strung together using a `pipeline framework <https://nrel.github.io/reV/_cli/reV%20pipeline.html>`_,
        or configured using `batch <https://nrel.github.io/reV/_cli/reV%20batch.html>`_.
        
        A typical reV workflow begins with input wind/solar/geothermal resource data
        (following the `rex data format <https://nrel.github.io/rex/misc/examples.nsrdb.html#data-format>`_)
        that is passed through the generation module. This output is then collected across space and time
        (if executed on the HPC), before being sent off to be aggregated under user-specified land exclusion scenarios.
        Exclusion data is typically provided via a collection of high-resolution spatial data layers stored in an HDF5 file.
        This file must be readable by reV's
        `ExclusionLayers <https://nrel.github.io/reV/_autosummary/reV.handlers.exclusions.ExclusionLayers.html#reV.handlers.exclusions.ExclusionLayers>`_
        class. See the `reVX Setbacks utility <https://nrel.github.io/reVX/misc/examples.setbacks.html>`_
        for instructions on generating setback exclusions for use in reV.
        Next, transmission costs are computed for each aggregated
        "supply-curve point" using user-provided transmission cost tables.
        See the `reVX transmission cost calculator utility <https://github.com/NREL/reVX/tree/main/reVX/least_cost_xmission/>`_
        for instructions on generating transmission cost tables.
        Finally, the supply curves and initial generation data can be used to
        extract representative generation profiles for each supply curve point.

        To get up and running with reV, first head over to the `installation page <https://nrel.github.io/reV/misc/installation.html>`_,
        then check out some of the `Examples <https://nrel.github.io/reV/misc/examples.html>`_ or
        go straight to the `CLI Documentation <https://nrel.github.io/reV/_cli/cli.html>`_!

        Installing reV
        ==============
        
        NOTE: The installation instruction below assume that you have python installed
        on your machine and are using `conda <https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/index.html>`_
        as your package/environment manager.
        
        Option 1: Install from PIP (recommended for analysts):
        
        1. Create a new environment:
            ``conda create --name rev python=3.9``
        
        2. Activate directory:
            ``conda activate rev``
        
        3. Install reV:
            1) ``pip install NREL-reV`` or
        
               - NOTE: If you install using conda and want to use `HSDS <https://github.com/NREL/hsds-examples>`_
                 you will also need to install h5pyd manually: ``pip install h5pyd``
        
        Option 2: Clone repo (recommended for developers)
        
        1. from home dir, ``git clone git@github.com:NREL/reV.git``
        
        2. Create ``reV`` environment and install package
            1) Create a conda env: ``conda create -n rev``
            2) Run the command: ``conda activate rev``
            3) cd into the repo cloned in 1.
            4) prior to running ``pip`` below, make sure the branch is correct (install
               from main!)
            5) Install ``reV`` and its dependencies by running:
               ``pip install .`` (or ``pip install -e .`` if running a dev branch
               or working on the source code)
        
        3. Check that ``reV`` was installed successfully
            1) From any directory, run the following commands. This should return the
               help pages for the CLI's.

        Tips
        
        - Only use a screen session if running the pipeline module: `screen -S rev`
        - `Full pipeline execution <https://nrel.github.io/reV/misc/examples.full_pipeline_execution.html>`_
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            reV -c "/scratch/user/rev/config_pipeline.json" pipeline
        
        - Running simply generation or econ can just be done from the console:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            reV -c "/scratch/user/rev/config_gen.json" generation
