Suggested change
Same for all other variables that use all combinations of turbines. This produces a much more concise and readable variable list file. The nomenclature package will automatically create all permutations during scenario validation. There was a problem hiding this comment.

There was a problem hiding this comment. Choose a reason for hiding this commentThe reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more. Yes. These units utilize sunlight to heat fluids, generating steam to drive turbines and produce electricity. Spain, particularly, has a considerable installed capacity of this type.

Still, if you think adding a new technology like this might be challenging for the nomenclature used throughout the whole project, I can omit it and categorize those units simply as solar units.

Ok, is that the same as Concentrated Solar Power (CSP)? If yes, I suggest to use CSP to remain consistent with common-definitions. There, we use "Final Energy|Solar" for thermal heat, but for water-heating, see here There was a problem hiding this comment.

Are these variables really necessary? A gas turbine will always be used with Natural Gas, not other Fossil Fuels... Also, it is confusing that the other types of gas power plants are not listed here. So better to remove.

Hi Again Daniel. Thank you for your comments. The point is that the gas turbine units do not use natural gas as the fuel necessarily. The term "gas" in a gas turbine refers to the working fluid used to drive the turbine, similar to how steam is used in steam turbines.

Fair enough (I meant that oil-based gas turbines are probably not really used any more, right?).
But that still doesn't mean that we need a part-aggregate "Fossil". After all, you could also run it with Hydrogen, which could or could not be from fossil sources...

OK. Sorry for the misunderstanding on my part.
However, in our dataset, we still have a considerable installed capacity of gas turbine units using various primary fuels, so I had to include all of them.
Regarding "Fossil," I used this term to classify the diesel generation units in my dataset because "Diesel" was not listed as a separate category in the common nomenclature.
