Conda environment check

  • I have tried using the osemosys-global conda environment.

Current Behavior

When running Senegal I had a quick look through the data file and noticed that there were a number of places where the CF for CSP was higher than 1 in many places.

Expected Behavior

No response

Steps To Reproduce

Run OG with SEN as the country.

Operating System

No response

@tniet I don't think we ever made the modelling of CSP functional for OG. The CF timeseries based on the PLEXOS-World dataset are not useable in a context where CSP storage is not modelled separately (i.e. any surplus CF for CSP goes into thermal storage). We kind of ignored it since it had neglectable impact when looking at 2015 installed capacities. Might be different ofcourse for future capacities (especially for specific countries). Happy to discuss how the inclusion of CSP can be tackled but don't think it is a high priority for the coming months imo. Options could be;

-Using daily CF's with the assumption that thermal storage during night time is big enough to support generation at max capacity.
-Modelling CSP storage as individual technologies linked to a CSP generator technology (not sure if this can be done in OSeMOSYS)
-Excluding CSP from the modelling
