Power Plant Database

[asolavi]

• Power Plant Database Computations
• Power Plant Database Analysis: Some power plants that were planned to be built by 2015-2016, were not actually build. They are, however, still present in the data that pypsa-earth uses. The file /pypsa-earth/resources/powerplants.csv contains the list of power plants used by pypsa-earth.
• Power Plant Database Adressing Mismatch: Identify all the power plants that have not been built (using the literature). Two approaches:

1. Change original database: more robust, more difficult (maybe not even possible).
2. Use the pypsa-zm-data repository to fit in the model an updated list of power plants.
