@tniet has this been included? I see variable costs for a number of technologies e.g. MINCOAIND which I assumes represents fuel costs for COA in IND? But what about other technologies like URN and BIO?
@tniet Was this ever included/updated?
@maartenbrinkerink I do believe this is in the variablecosts.py script (just did a quick read through). I don't see the commit where it's addressing these specific pieces on that file, though - I think the full history has gotten lost somehow.
The script uses the World Bank Commodity Market Outlooks to provide variable costs for fuels, which is what was originally the issue here, so that's solved.
A few questions/notes:
Add variable costs for the model in a new jupyter notebook. Base costs on World Bank Commodity Outlook.
Fuel production technology names will need to come from the powerplant_data notebook or from the output.csv.
Include small variable cost for international trading hubs for the commodities.
