GB pumped hydro storage missing #2802

Open q-- opened 3 years ago

q-- commented 3 years ago

It appears pumped hydro consumption in GB is missing. Last night there were super low power prices and GB was exporting to FR despite that resulting in nuclear being curtailed there, and yet there was zero pumped hydro consumption in GB.

This is probably a duplicate of #2800.

I thought GB used a different parser?

ENTSOE is listed as the GB parser here.

Looks like it uses ENTSOE for some things, but a different one for production.

Oh yeah true, ok I'll remove this bug from the commit+pull request description.

It seems we have pumped hydro for GB again. This is a screenshot of the storage peak for the last 24 hours :)

This is about consumption, not production

It might be a problem with the data source, though so I'm not sure this bug is fixable.

Kongkille commented 2 years ago

Ah, I misunderstood, on the map we define this as storage

However, yes looking at the historical data for this year, we never see a negative net_discharge i.e. storage image

I think we can keep this issue open until we investigate for sure whether there is something to be done here.
