contents Energy research software (ERS) is a central cornerstone to facilitate energy research. However, ERS is developed by researchers who, in many cases, lack formal training in software engineering. This reduces the quality of ERS, leading to limited reproducibility and reusability. To address these issues, we developed ten central recommendations for the development of ERS, covering areas such as conceptualization, development, testing, and publication of ERS. The recommendations are based on the outcomes of two workshops with a diverse group of energy researchers and aim to improve the awareness of research software engineering in the energy domain. The recommendations should enhance the quality of ERS and, therefore, the reproducibility of energy research.
