Clarify GridEmissions vs. EIA data #194

Closed trevorb1 closed 4 months ago

trevorb1 commented 4 months ago

Type of documentation issue

Missing Information, Incorect Information

Issue Description

The current retrieve_eia_data rule states the following. But I guess with PR #180 this got switched to directly using GridEmissions data? I know that GridEmissions uses EIA data, but we should probably be giving GridEmissions proper credit as well! :)

Suggested Update

I believe this is the correct repository, however, there are a couple papers on the methods there that we may also want to cite.
