Currently, the "carbon sensitive fraction" demand parameter splits demand into two distinct nodes. Thus, the model currently has the capability to supply the carbon insensitive portion without supplying the carbon sensitive portion. It chooses to do this since a producer can not produce a full CHEC per ton of H2. I am uncertain if this is intended or makes sense.
My proposal is this: Combine the nodes into one node. Allow demand at that node to be met ifcarbon_sensitive_fraction * cons(umed)_h CHECs are produced on behalf of that demand.
