Description

Even they imply additional health issues (PM2.5 emissions, etc), I think we should include them in the model to capture better the existing brownfield heating capacities in 2020.
We could read data from DEA
https://ens.dk/en/our-services/projections-and-models/technology-data/technology-data-individual-heating-plants
and select the category Wood stove, in a new single-family house (Index 206)

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests, so first locate the existing data-ingestion and brownfield heating-capacity entry points. Review the DEA Technology Data page and select the Wood stove category for a new single-family house (Index 206). Done means biomass stoves are represented in the 2020 model with the selected data.
