Hi @euronion! Just a quick ping here to ask if you could approve this - it's currently blocking a project of mine - please let me know if you have any questions. Many thanks in advance :) |

Thanks for the PR and sorry for not reviewing for some time in this repo.
-
Is this a retrofit option for existing boilers or additional costs for building new units with post-combustion capture?
Or are the costs for retrofit and for new units similar?
I'm asking because we have somecarbon capture retrofittechnologies already, so it would make sense to adopt a similar namingbiomass boiler carbon capture retrofit.
Although I think you tried to be consistent with thebiomass CHP capturenaming, right? -
Can you regenerate the output files? We recently changed to reporting values in 2025 instead of 2020 EUR.

Unclear where this came from, but not part of the PR
