Call SHOT through GAMS' Pyomo and JuMP interfaces
Date: July 1, 2020
If you have a licensed version of GAMS (you can also request a free community license) it is also possible to call SHOT through GAMS' Pyomo and JuMP interfaces. Read more about it in this blog post or check out the Github repositories for GAMS.jl or the documentation page for the Pyomo interface.
SHOT 1.0 is now available at Github. Binaries are available for Windows, and Linux and MacOS users can easily compile SHOT themselves using the instructions on the page Compiling.
SHOT is also available in GAMS 31.1. A trial version can be downloaded from GAMS.
