Adding taxable fuel categories in FTT-Tr #109

Closed cormacmlynch closed 6 months ago

RTFT (fuel tax) is not technology dependent in the spreadsheets. In the Fortran model, we use an in-code converter to determine what vehicles are subject to the fuel tax. This was only semi-implemented in the Python code and it meant that EVs were being subjected to a fuel tax in the net zero scenario when they shouldn't be.

This should fix this for EVs, though I'm not sure what other vehicles should be exempt. Plug-in hybrids, hydrogen, CNG?

Also changed how the fuel cost component is displayed in the front end - now consistent with Fortran version and includes the fuel tax component.

Just to add too @Femkemilene, I couldn't replicate the error you mentioned today with creating the S2 CSVs. I only receive warnings for FR08 not being in the VariableListing file.

Looks good!
