difference in total electricity generation #8

Open martavp opened 1 year ago

martavp commented 1 year ago

The electricity generation in 2050 for the "Early neutrality scenario" (1.5C or carbon budget 25.7) is 7700TWh in the output file saved by the script https://github.com/Parisra/pypsa-eur-sec-to-ipcc/tree/patch-2/IAM%20results but when I sum all the generators in the summary supply_enery.csv I get about 10,000 TWh/year.

We need to check and correct what is creating this large difference.

I think the issue is that in the current script 'EU' doesn't include all the countries (only EU27) in PyPSA-Eur-Sec, which is why the numbers don't match direct results from the supply_energy table. I updated the script to include another sheet for 'All' countries, and the electricity generation for 2050 Early neutrality scenario for all countries is 10,132 TWh/year.

Great, thanks for checking @Parisa and adding the 'All' countries to double-check.

By the way, we now have a dictionary added between PyPSA-Eur-Sec country nomenclature and IAMC nomenclature in the EU climate advisory board workflow
