matching.ec_matcher

Module for matching solar systems to energy communities.

Functions

Name	Description
determine_ec_definition_eligibility	Determine eligibility for different energy community definitions.
match_systems_to_communities	Match solar systems to energy communities.
prepare_energy_communities	Prepare energy community geodataframe by adding type and year columns.

determine_ec_definition_eligibility

matching.ec_matcher.determine_ec_definition_eligibility(df)

Determine eligibility for different energy community definitions. This is a wrapper around the centralized eligibility function.

Args: df: DataFrame containing solar system data

Returns: DataFrame with eligibility flags

match_systems_to_communities

matching.ec_matcher.match_systems_to_communities(
    solar_systems_df,
    CCEC_2023=None,
    CCEC_2024=None,
    FFSAEC_2023=None,
    FFSAEC_2024=None,
)

Match solar systems to energy communities.

Args: solar_systems_df: DataFrame containing solar system data CCEC_2023: Coal Closure Energy Communities for 2023 CCEC_2024: Coal Closure Energy Communities for 2024 FFSAEC_2023: Fossil Fuel Statistical Areas for 2023 FFSAEC_2024: Fossil Fuel Statistical Areas for 2024

Returns: DataFrame with matching results

prepare_energy_communities

matching.ec_matcher.prepare_energy_communities(ec_gdf, ec_type, year)

Prepare energy community geodataframe by adding type and year columns.

Args: ec_gdf: Energy community GeoDataFrame ec_type: Type of energy community (CCEC or FFSAEC) year: Year of the data

Returns: Prepared GeoDataFrame
