Summary
This PR updates the procedure in the psh subdirectory for calculating existing site pumped-storage hydropower (PSH) data to use input data sourced from Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) instead of data from the International Hydropower Association (IHA).
Technical details
The input data file was acquired by contacting the ORNL HydroSource team: details of the data are outlined in the 2021 U.S. Hydropower Market Report.
This data was selected for its updated, comprehensive list of existing and operating PSH units in the U.S. It replaces data sourced from the IHA, because the latter includes non-operating units at various stages of construction/cancellation.
Implementation notes
calculate_existing_psh_capacities.pyis updated to process new input fileIssues resolved
cap_existing_psh.csvnow only contains data from existing and operating PSH unitsRelevant sources or documentation
