PR https://github.com/singularity-energy/open-grid-emissions/pull/239 closes issue https://github.com/singularity-energy/open-grid-emissions/issues/49 by adding some post-processing code in our data pipeline that corrects and expands the subplant mapping done by pudl. However, a more permanent long-term solution would be to update the pudl.analysis.epa_crosswalk module to actually achieve the same results as our code to update the crosswalk. Namely, this would involve considering boiler-generator associations in the network analysis.
