Get EIA-860 data from latest validated year #355

Closed grgmiller closed 8 months ago

grgmiller commented 8 months ago

Purpose

In https://github.com/singularity-energy/open-grid-emissions/pull/353, we required that the subplant identification code load raw EIA-860 data from the latest validated year (2022). However, if running the pipeline for the first time for any year other than the latest validated year, this would lead to an error, since that file is not downloaded. This PR adds code to download the EIA-860 file for the latest validated year.

Fixed CAR-3907
