wind_upstream.py

Description: This module generates the annual emissions of each flowtype for wind farm construction for each plant in EIA923 based on upstream contributions.

• Information in the main dataframe is transposed and then melted, such that the output structure is a row for each flow type for each facility.

Functions:

• generate_upstream_wind(year) - All content in this module is contained within this function.
• Calls `eia923_download_extract(year)

Data:

• EIA-923 - The survey Form EIA-923 collects detailed electric power data -- monthly and annually -- on electricity generation, fuel consumption, fossil fuel stocks, and receipts at the power plant and prime mover level (EIA)
• wind_inventory.csv - This CSV file contains flow amounts for all emissions and waste streams at each wind facility in the U.S.

Dependencies:

• pandas
• numpy
