With the implementation of the improvements from highRES-UK, a small 'error' slipped through.
In the following line in highres.gms:

the CO2 budget is scaled based on the demand and the scalar 2, resulting in 2gCO2/kWh. This has detached co2budget.dd from the model code and changing the CO2 budget there does not do anything. We should consider re-implementing it, as it was written in SoftwareX.
Note: re-implementing co2budget.dd may be impacted by demand used for the model, i.e. if the demand is scaled to ~2x then the CO2 budget also need to be scaled.
