* Add `Post-combustion carbon capture retrofit - 500 MW(th) biomass-fired boiler` as `biomass boiler capture` (https://github.com/PyPSA/technology-data/pull/253).
* Added Variable O&M for carbon capture retrofits: "biomass CHP capture" and "cement capture" (https://github.com/PyPSA/technology-data/pull/253).

Keeping it explicit by mentioning the tech names :)

* Adding `grey methanol synthesis`.

The investment number contains the investment required for postprocessing (compression and dehydration). It would only be consistent to also include the electricity and heat requirements for this step as well (they are separate in the DEA data sheet) or to report it as additional rows.

Do you know why this value does not match the value in the data sheet (2.7 MEUR/(t CO2/h))?
