Fix function calculating averages of the fuel types #371

Closed rouille closed 5 months ago

rouille commented 5 months ago

Purpose

Fix function that calculates the averages of the fuel types. Closes CAR-4205.

What the code is doing

Add a new row that summarizes all fuel categories as follows:

Testing

Ran the 2005 pipeline

Where to look

Relevant changes are in the the write_generated_averages function. Other edits add typehints and docstrings to function in the oge.output_data module.

@rouille could you please post some example screenshots of the new outputs with this fix just to double check that everything is being calculated correctly?

Here it is for 2005. There is the nan row coming from plant 13213 in Mississippi, see plant attributes below

>>> psa = pd.read_csv("plant_static_attributes_2005.csv.zip")
>>> psa[psa["fuel_category"].isna()]

It is fixed in #368 and will be taken care of once we rebase this PR. Nevertheless the calculation is correct. The data frame being to wide, I drop the file instead of a screenshot. annual_generation_averages_by_fuel_2005.csv

The "generated" rate columns are now correct, but we just want to also fix the numerical columns

Should we change the file name then, annual_generation_averages_by_fuel_2005.csv is confusing in my opinion. I would expect to find average value for all columns including the absolute ones.

grgmiller commented 5 months ago

Should we change the file name then I think here the averages refers to fuel-average emissions factors, rather than averages across fuels. The total row is a sum (just like each of the fuel rows are a sum of specific plants - we are not calculating the average net generation across all coal plants), and it is the generated_rate columns that are the averages of those sums.

If we change the file name, we would just need to track down where we are using this and change the file name there as well.

Done. See file attached annual_generation_averages_by_fuel_2005.csv
