Changes proposed in this Pull Request

In this PR I have added a dissagregation strategy for industrial loads. It is based on the United States County-Level Industrial Energy Use dataset. All industrial load is treated equally here (ie. heat and electrical industry demand follow the same dissagregation logic). So for only state level dissagregation is supported (ie. EFS data works).

Note: I think something is still off with the actual dissagreagtion. If I plot county level energy use, counties just north of LA have the highest energy use. However, if I plot clustered industrial load (based on EFS), it shows the SF area as being the highest energy use.

Im gonna move on to implementing the reading of the Industrial load dataset to see if I can find the issue while working through that.
