Description

Include technology assumptions from other countries than Europe

Investment costs vary depending on the country. Currently the cost assumptions are mainly based on cost assumptions for Europe. It would be nice to extend the technology-data also to other countries.

@pz-max @euronion do you have some insights for cost assumptions in other countries?
@tomkourou kindly offered to help to feed data from other countries back into technology-data

Research direction

Start by reviewing how the current European technology assumptions are organized, then identify suitable assumptions for additional countries and confirm how they should be represented. Done means technology-data includes validated country-specific cost assumptions beyond Europe.
