@m-jamieson or @bl-young, do you remember why 'NYIS' is used in place of 'NY' for the trade region? https://github.com/USEPA/ElectricityLCI/blob/e56268132f7607ead58a33bb5bdd525563a784f5/electricitylci/eia_io_trading.py#L65
All others are labeled as regions in EIA's API (if you select to filter by BA/region facet): https://www.eia.gov/opendata/browser/electricity/rto/daily-interchange-data
Nope, I didn't do much with the trading
I also don't recall. I know when I was poking around yesterday, there are not very many explicit codes in there - I don't feel like they align to FERC or BAA.
It has to come to our attention that the EBA.zip downloaded from http://api.eia.gov/bulk/EBA.zip has strong influence on the model results. Presently, in bulk_eia_data.py, this zip file is managed using the manifest.txt (containing the latest update date for the zip file downloaded) and the manifest found on the EIA's server. When compared and enough days have passed between them, a new download even is triggered to keep your local EBA.zip up-to-date. This may be remedied by utilizing EIA's API, particularly if cut-off dates are important for reproducibility (note: this type of filtering could also be accomplished using the local zip). The challenge is that this data call requires yet another API key registration (in addition the temporary EPA data API required for accessing CAMPD as described in cems_data.py).
