This is just an FYI that the function generate_regional_grid_loss in eia_trans_dist_grid_loss.py has three arguments, the first being final_database described in the doc string below; however, this data frame parameter is never used; rather, a new database is created using the build_generation_data function found in eia923_generation.py module.
You may want to consider removing this requirement.
def generate_regional_grid_loss(final_database, year, subregion="all"):
"""This function generates transmission and distribution losses for the
provided generation data and given year, aggregated by subregion.
Arguments:
final_database: dataframe
The database containing plant-level emissions.
year: int
Analysis year for the transmission and distribution loss data.
Ideally this should match the year of your final_database.
Returns:
td_by_region: dataframe
A dataframe of transmission and distribution loss rates as a
fraction. This dataframe can be used to generate unit processes
for transmission and distribution to match the regionally-
aggregated emissions unit processes.
