Correcting:

  • outdated CO2 compression data (Mitsubishi data was for ship transport) with latest AIT study

Checklist

  • Code changes are sufficiently documented; i.e. new functions contain docstrings and further explanations may be given in doc. not applicable
  • Data source for new technologies is clearly stated.
  • Newly introduced dependencies are added to environment.yaml (if applicable). not applicable
  • A note for the release notes doc/release_notes.rst of the upcoming release is included.
  • I consent to the release of this PR's code under the GPLv3 license.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the cost/energy assumptions for the CO2 liquefaction technology (used for CO2 conditioning/compression for transport) by replacing the previous Mitsubishi/IEA (2004, ship transport) reference with values from the 2024 AIT study, and propagates the update into generated output cost tables (global and US) plus release notes.

Changes:

  • Replace CO2 liquefaction CAPEX/FOM/electricity-input source data with AIT study values (and remove the previous heat-input row).
  • Update inputs/manual_input.csv so the compilation pipeline produces the new CO2 liquefaction outputs.
  • Add an “Upcoming Release” note documenting the CO2 dense-phase compression update.

Is this really needed in technology data? Consider moving it into config.default in pypsa-eur workflow.

Following the data structure so far. I don't want to break people's code but happy to discuss.

Generally looks good to me, two comments

  • consider moving CO2 liquefaction,carbondioxide-input,0,1,t_CO2/t_CO2,-,, into config.default of the pypsa-eur workflow, as this does not add any new data to technology.data
  • Add to release_notes the rather big change in CO2 liquefaction capital cost (which make sense as the previous value was simply wrong)
