Description

This is currently manual as implemented in #302, but it'd be cleaner to limit the parameter files to the yearly numbers specified in the references, and then interpolate quarterly automatically.

Research direction

Start by reading the implementation referenced in issue #302 and locate the parameter files containing the UC rollout and uprating factors. Compare those files with the yearly numbers specified in the referenced sources, then determine how quarterly interpolation should be applied. Done means the files retain yearly values while quarterly values are generated automatically and existing behavior remains covered.
