Adjust geothermal_district_heating() for the intermediate years on scenario path #323

Open ulfmueller opened 4 days ago

In p-e there is now also geothermal heat and electricity (from version 0.12 on). So we could use that (we would have to switch it on in the config file). The question is, how we did the georeferencing of these geothermal plants in egon for etrago.

So, I think we have to

Overall, I would vote for the path which creates the less work (I would expect this fact to have a minor influence).

I just saw that @ClaraBuettner posted in #246 :

I checked how geothermal power plants are distributed within powerd-data. It considers if there is a geothermal potential next to the district heating grid. So I guess it makes sense to keep our implementation since the spatial distribution make a larger difference.

So, that would mean we would keep the option switched off in p-e. Our function basically just has to be run for each prenetwork on the path. But we do not have to interpolate because it is due to optimization and the path-consistency will be dealt with in p-e in the brownfield part. So @CarlosEpia you simply have to make sure that the function manipulates all prenetworks on the path in the execute function. Ok?

Sure. Done in 696ad17ee5e01dac7c0749aec98f453678f9f95f.
