user_resources

imputed_powerplants
<resources>/user/{shapes}/impute/{category}.parquet Optional. Files with point-specific powerplant data to impute on top of the files produced by this module. Useful when important powerplant facilities are missing in the source datasets. Can also be used to replace data when combined with `excluded_ids` in the configuration.
proxy_rooftop_pv
<resources>/user/{shapes}/proxies/rooftop_pv.tif Proxy raster to use to estimate rooftop PV capacity.
shapes
<resources>/user/{shapes}/shapes.parquet GeoParquet shapefile with the desired regional disaggregation. IMPORTANT: shapes must add up to whole countries to ensure proxied national statistics are correct.
wemi
<resources>/user/WEMI.xls Wind Energy Market Intelligence dataset. This optional dataset will replace the GEM GWPT dataset if selected in the configuration.

Wildcards

adjustment
Whether or not total capacity per country has been re-scaled to fit national statistics. Options: "adjusted" or "unadjusted".
category
Powerplant category. A total of eight are available: bioenergy, fossil, geothermal, hydropower, nuclear, large_solar, solar, and wind. Note that "solar" is only available for aggregated cases.
shapes
name of the provided shapefile.
