Issue Description

PR #680 and #682 added godeep for renewable data!🎉 I think the documentation needs to get updates to match the config file. Specifically, these are the config options, followed by my questions:

renewable:
  dataset: godeeep # [atlite, godeeep]

## implement wildcard for this, following interconnect example
renewable_weather_years: [2019]
snapshots:
  start: "2019-01-01"
  end: "2019-12-31"
  inclusive: "left"

## godeeep inputs for scenarios
renewable_scenario_years: [2033]
renewable_scenarios: ["rcp45hotter"] #["historical", "rcp45hotter", "rcp45cooler", "rcp85hotter", "rcp85cooler"]
renewable_snapshots:
  start: "2033-01-01" ## change the year to match renewable_scenario_years
  end: "2033-12-31"
  inclusive: "left"
  1. The renewable dataset is self explanatory, but would be good if the config tables linked to the raw sources/repositories?

  2. What is the difference between the snapshots and the years options? Feels like we should just be able to specify one for each (ie. renewable_weather_years or snapshots instead of both? Same for renewable_scenario_years and renewable_snapshots)

  3. What is the first year we can use for the renewable_scenario_years? With historical I guess we can use whatever year we want? Would be good to specify in the config tables.

  4. Does it make sense to collapse the renewable_weather_years and renewable_scenario_years into one value? Then just use the renewable.dataset value to check what data to pull? I know if using atlite you would just need to check that its a year, and not a rcp scenario, tho. (I havent actually tried to godeep dataset, so this may not make sense! Just a thought)

  5. In the config table for the godeep renewable scenarios, is there a doc we can link to that describes the differences between each choice?
