Purpose of this PR
A recent update to the historical data made the previous German capacity fixing located in the regipol module incompatible with the historical data.
REMIND equation
q_PE_histCap
enforces nuclear capacity in 2010, 2015 and 2020 to be at least 90% of the historical data input calculated atmrremind
calcCapacity
function.The regipol module had extra code to enforce 2015 and 2020 German nuclear capacities to be
10.8/1000
and7.8/1000
, respectively.q_PE_histCap
sets a lower bound equal to90% of 8.93/1000 = 8.037/1000
which is lower than the previous enforced capacity value in the regipol module7.8/1000

.This PR removes the German specific code fixing the nuclear capacitites, and relies on the core equation to reflect the historical behavior instead.
