The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Young Australians Just Won a Human Rights Case Against an Enormous Coal Mine
This study about the European grid quantifies all this. If you want to go deeper into how they get these numbers, you'll need to read about PyPSA or other grid modelling tools. It's all open source and well documented.

Solar panels set to be mandatory on all new buildings under EU plan New proposal aims to rapidly reduce dependence on Russian fossil and supercharge Europe’s transition to green energy
You need to know how energy models work, and I invite you to read about them. Check out PyPSA for instance (paper, Source code)). That would answer both points above and more. For instance, you need to know that they are based on real weather and consumption data, so they account for natural variability. They know the cost of producing synfuels, and they optimize around it to find the cheapest system overall given the input technologies and assumptions. These calculations would be impossible to do by hand.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing open-grid-emissions and PyPSA you can also consider the following projects:
ElectricPy - Electrical Engineering Formulas in Python
snl-quest - An open source, Python-based software platform for energy storage simulation and analysis developed by Sandia National Laboratories.
