France: real-time capacity data #2953

Open corradio opened 3 years ago

corradio commented 3 years ago

Load factor (%) data is available as the TCO column in https://opendata.reseaux-energies.fr/explore/dataset/eco2mix-regional-cons-def/table/?disjunctive.libelle_region&disjunctive.nature and can the capacity can therefore be calculated. This would be great to add to the French parser!

The Cypriot page also has the current capacities. Particularly for fossil fuel plants this can change from day to day. Other sources might also publish capacities in a way that can be accessed programmatically. Is there an API method for capacity updates?

I made a revision to our wiki to document how to add dynamic capacity data: https://github.com/tmrowco/electricitymap-contrib/wiki/Building-a-new-parser
