Wrong currency year assumed for electrolysis #90

DEA data states 2020 in Excel file, compile_cost_assumption does not adjust, assumes 2015.

Yes, the DEA has updated some technologies and these are in 2020 Euro. One would have to go through all technologies and check for which Euro year the cost assumptions are given. Most technologies are still in 2015 Euro

euronion commented 1 year ago

Unfortunately other than e.g. with offshore wind or solar-utility, we don't account for this for electrolysis which is already in 2020 currency in the data source we use, but we assume it's 2015.

electrolysis currency year is with this commit now adjusted as for solar and offwind. At some point somebody probably should check the currency year of all other technologies
