Hi,
I recently became aware that I was using an older version (0.4.8) of the powerplantmatching. I tested my setup with the newer version (0.5.3), and it runs without any issues.
The following is a comment/question on the powerplantmatching dataset, which maybe is relevant to mention:
With regard to pumped-hydro storage (PHS), the newest version of powerplantmatching entails an energy storage capacity of 4.3 TWh (Europe-aggregate, assuming 6-hours duration for plants that do not have duration specified). In the earlier version 0.4.8, this was vastly overestimated at 10 TWh. As comparison, Geth et al. (2015) showed 1.3 TWh (including Norway and Switzerland) using 2012-numbers. PHS power capacity has increased from roughly 50 to 55 GW from 2014 to 2020 (iha, 2015, 2021), so energy storage capacity most likely is increased as well. But is it fair to say that energy storage capacity has been quadrupled since 2012 (from 1.3 TWh to 4.3 TWh)? Or how can we interpret this difference?
