Hydrogen improvements kerosene #3042

Closed kaskranenburgQ closed 2 months ago

This PR adds flexible synthetic kerosine to the model. Goes together with ETModel #4253
This flexibility option is based on the electricity price and is an addition to the power, hydrogen & Co2 modelling.

The components that have been added are:

Split up of the old synthetic kerosene nodes into baseload (in PJ) and dispatchable (in MWe-input) nodes.
Addition of a WTP component for the dispatchable kerosene production.
Addition of the flexible component to the relevant flexible power graphs.
Refinement of the graph queries where needed.

Just realised that now the slide text for the willingness to pay slider is called "Conversion to kerosene for industry" Screenshot 2024-05-01 at 13 51 31 However, is this kerosene used in the industry? Should it be renamed to Conversion to kerosene?

Well-spotted, @kaskranenburgQ I'll change it!

mabijkerk commented 2 months ago

Even when I set the WTP to maximum, the peak capacity (3rd column), never reaches the installed capacity (2nd column) in the table "Flexible electricity demand technologies". Why is this the case?

Follow-up: it is because the query V(energy_production_synthetic_kerosene_dispatchable, "number_of_units * input_capacity"), but the input_capacity is split between 55% electricity and 45% hydrogen.

Great spot @mabijkerk, I tried fixing this by changing capacity_of_energy_production_synthetic_kerosene_dispatchable to:

UPDATE( V(energy_production_synthetic_kerosene_dispatchable), number_of_units, DIVIDE( USER_INPUT(), DIVIDE( V(energy_production_synthetic_kerosene_dispatchable,input_capacity), V(energy_production_synthetic_kerosene_dispatchable,input.electricity) )

This does not seem to work since 'input.electricity' can't be found. The question is how can we access the 'input.electricity' component in GQL, what do you think @mabijkerk ?
