Currently, the model uses the electricity prices seen by the industry sector to calculate the values for "Imported Electricity Price" and "Exported Electricity Price." Potentially allow these values to be customized. Note that the Exported Electricity Price is based on non-BAU data (e.g. because domestic policies can influence the cost of electricity), so it could not simply be replaced with an input data variable. The input data on exported electricity price would need to be altered to reflect policy-driven changes in the price of electricity generated in the modeled region.
