How is missing data handled in the EIA-930 data cleaning/reconciliation process? Whenever there is missing data in EIA-930, it appears that a value of 1.0 is getting assigned to those...

The combustion of biomass releases greenhouse gases and other air pollutants into the atmosphere. However, the EPA's eGRID database includes a legacy calculation of biomass-adjusted emissions values. As they explain...

A handful of units that report to CEMS only report NOx emissions data, but report zero data for gross load, fuel consumption, and other pollutants. As of https://github.com/singularity-energy/hourly-egrid/pull/133, we now...

For its table of boiler type-specific NOx emissions factors, eGRID uses this table from EIA for emissions factors: https://www.eia.gov/electricity/annual/html/epa_a_02.html. However, where there is not a specific NOx emission factor in...

We assume that measured and reported NOx emissions in CEMS represent controlled NOx emissions (rather than uncontrolled) - that is, NOx emissions after emissions control equipment has been used. In...

Currently, we fill missing CO2 emissions data in CEMS, which we identify as data that is missing, or is reported as zero when fuel consumption is non-zero. However, we do...

Plant 7063 is a compressed air energy storage project that operates on natural gas turbines. Because the prime mover is listed as `CE` for compressed air storage, there is not...

Currently, when allocating `fuel_consumed_mmbtu` and `fuel_consumed_for_electricity_mmbtu` from the EIA-923 Generation and Fuel table to individual generators using the `pudl.analysis.allocate_net_gen` module, we allocate both using the same fraction. However, in reviewing...
