Description
I stumbled across the "THRESHOLD_KW" variable in the MASTR() importer. It does not seem possible to change that without fiddling around in the code, is it?
For example, if I just want to convert MASTR data into the powerplantmatching format and remove all filters set in the config file, still around half of the installed solar capacity (of ~90 GW in the current setup) will go missing.
This also seems counter-intuitive to me, because in the default config there is the following comment and line regarding MASTR:
# exclude units smaller than 100 kW (low total capacity) and take nuclear from other datasets (good matching)
- MASTR: Capacity >= 0.1 and Fueltype != 'Nuclear'
I would have expected that when I remove the capacity filter, I get all capacities in the data. This is not the case, however (as outlined above). Does anything speak against introducing a "MASTR_THRESHOLD_KW" variable in the config instead of the hard-coded one? (and probably removing the misleading Capacity >= 0.1 filter from the MASTR config)?
