Misintegration of Biomass potentials #232

Closed hazemakhalek closed 7 months ago

hazemakhalek commented 10 months ago

Describe the Bug

Currently, the (dummy) values of the biomass potentials is set to every node in the system leading to a large overestimation.

Additionally, a proper integration of biomass/biogas potentials could be implemented by either:

  1. Store the potentials of a country in data/temp_hard_coded/biomass_potentials_s_37.csv (currently only EU potentials here)
  2. Set the potentials in the config
  3. Find global dataset and automize everything

I think 3. would be best but I am not aware of such a dataset, so I suggest going for option 1 or 2.

Global biomass dataset (but I think not energy-related): https://globbiomass.org/wp-content/uploads/GB_Maps/Globbiomass_global_dataset.html

Further point of discussion: Spatially resolved biomass/biogas potentials?
