Upcoming Release
================
* Doubled solar rooftop potentials to roughly 1 TW for Europe based on `recent
European Commission reports
<https://www.epj-pv.org/articles/epjpv/full_html/2024/01/pv230071/pv230071.html>`_.
* Remove exogenously set share of rooftop PV (``costs: rooftop_share:``).
Rooftop and utility-scale PV are now largely handled as separate technologies
with endogenous shares.
