Add CRF sector individuals from OEP reference table #1401

Open l-emele opened 1 year ago

l-emele commented 1 year ago

Description of the issue

Discussed today with @han-f bilaterally:

It would be nice to have all CRF sectors of this OEP table (column crf_code) in the OEO.

Currently, only a subset of about a third are represented by OEO individuals, so 111 further CRF sector individuals could be added.

Ideas of solution

As this issue would significantly extend oeo-social (and potentially oeo-shared), what for a decision on issue #1399 regarding introducing a separate oeo-sectors module.

Regarding the definitions I suggest the same fast-forward approach as in #461/#523 and #858/#967: Copy & paste definitions from the IPCC guidelines without discussing every single definition.

Workflow checklist

I am aware that

There is a reason why we did not some of these CRF codes yet. There is a mismatch between the structure in the IPCC Guidelines and the structure in the CRF for the subsectors of 1.A.2.

Code IPCC Guidelines CRF
1.A.2.a Iron and Steel Iron and steel
1.A.2.b Non-Ferrous Metals Non-ferrous metals
1.A.2.c Chemicals Chemicals
1.A.2.d Pulp, Paper and Print Pulp, paper and print
1.A.2.e Food Processing, Beverages and Tobacco Food processing, beverages and tobacco
1.A.2.f Non-Metallic Minerals Non-metallic minerals
1.A.2.g Transport Equipment Other
1.A.2.h Machinery Does not exist in CRF
1.A.2.i Mining (excluding fuels) and Quarrying Does not exist in CRF
1.A.2.j Wood and Wood Products Does not exist in CRF
1.A.2.k Construction Does not exist in CRF
1.A.2.l Textile and Leather Does not exist in CRF
1.A.2.m Non-specified Industry Does not exist in CRF

So seems, in the CRF there are the IPCC subsectors 1.A.2.g to 1.A.2.m lumped together in 1.A.2.g. So for CRF 1.A.2.g we need to find a own definition and cannot rely on the IPCC guidelines.

Further, in the IPCC Guidelines most subsectors do not have nice verbal definitions/descriptions. Instead there is only a reference to the International Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities (ISIC). For example, 1.A.2.a is simply defined as ISIC Group 271 and Class 2731.

1.A.2.g is interesting: I do not find it in the current Table 1 template on reportnet. It is also not part of the tables in the Annexes to legislation, as are the other detailed subsectors. So it may have come from elsewhere, probably from the projection compilation file (@wingechr ?). "projection" legislation holds way less subsectors in general, so we may need to re-do the CRF codes in the harmonised table in case there is no data reported in any of these subsectors and to be in line with legislation and reported data: grafik

han-f commented 1 year ago

I assume that after the adjustment there will be way less sector definitions to be added, as CRF does not include all the subsectors.

han-f commented 1 year ago

I think my latest two comments can be discarded, they are not relevant to the issue.

han-f commented 1 year ago

We will delete all these in the first column that are not in Annex XV or Annex XII for now. Then this table relates completely only to the data from these Annexes. We will then separately work on adding further detailed CRF categories and maybe add them back later into the table (or another one).

wingechr commented 1 year ago

I removed entries with: in_cir_2020_1208_annex_xxv_art_38_tab_1a == False && in_cir_749_2014_annex_xii_art_23_tab_1 == False from the table

han-f commented 1 year ago

That is perfect, thanks @wingechr . @l-emele now we have a lot covered in the OEO already, and what we have not seems mostly related to LULUCF subsectors. I think our datwrapper provides a easier-on-the-eye overview as the table on the OEP: https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/RXnQx/26/

As this issue would significantly extend oeo-social (and potentially oeo-shared), what for a decision on issue #1399 regarding introducing a separate oeo-sectors module.

The decision on how to proceed with the modules still takes some time, therefore we should proceed without waiting for this decision.

In PR #1440, I implemented the missing individuals for energy (CRF 1.) and industrial processes (CRF 2.). For the LULUCF individuals (CRF 4.*) I will do a separate PR.
