I appreciate your response. While I have comprehended the methodology for stranded assets, I would greatly appreciate your assistance in elucidating the approach for calculating "electricity investment costs" in scenarios where I intend to perform these calculations outside of the GCAM model, specifically within the framework of Excel.
