Description
Feature Request
The sector coupling side relies on using emission factor data from the costs.csv file. Having the calculation of emission factor CCS techs in add_extra_components.py means the calculation of emission factors is repeated in sector side.
It would probably make sense to do the calculation of CCS emission factors in build_cost_data to allow for downstream use.

Research direction
Start with workflow/scripts/add_extra_components.py at lines 36–43 and trace how build_cost_data produces costs.csv. Review related issue #407 for context, then determine where the CCS emission-factor calculation belongs so downstream sector-coupling code can reuse it without repeating the calculation. Done means the calculation is handled during cost-data construction and remains available to downstream use.
