add interest rate, operating cost and maintenance cost to the OEO
Description of the issue
As mentioned in https://github.com/OpenEnergyPlatform/ontology/issues/1968 interest rate, operating cost and maintenance cost are terms used in a definition in the new tasks module.
This may also relate to #1914.
Ideas of solution
interest rate is an economic value that shows how much interest is added to a value per time period.
operating cost is a fixed cost that is given due to operating a thing day-to-day.
maintenance cost is a fixed cost given by maintaining a thing so it stays operational.
Both operating and maintenance costs are covered by definition fixed cost which is in the OEO.
A fixed cost is a cost for operation and maintenance that does not vary with the amount of goods or services produced.
So I changed my original definition to reflect that.
Workflow checklist
- [ ] I discussed the issue with someone else than me before working on a solution
- [x ] I already read the latest version of the workflow for this repository
- [x ] The goal of this ontology is clear to me
I am aware that
- [ x] every entry in the ontology should have a definition
- [ x] classes should arise from concepts rather than from words
operating costis a fixed cost that is given due to operating a thing day-to-day.maintenance costis a fixed cost given by maintaining a thing so it stays operational.
"thing" is not good wording for ontology definitions... 😉 Since we don't have any axioms from fixed cost to any "thing that causes the cost", I'd suggest to use examples from OEO:
operating cost is a fixed cost that is caused due to the day-to-day operation, e.g. of a manufacturing plant or power plant.
Same for maintenace cost.
