This PR adds improved carbon modelling to the ETM. Changes include:

  • New processes added for the production of liquid fuels and feedstock
  • New carriers bionaphtha, biomethanol, pyrolysis oil and pyrolysis bio-oil added
  • New and existing carriers added to national transport, international transport and chemical industry sectors
  • Expansion of the existing refinery sankey with newly added processes
  • Necessary updates queries for user output

@kndehaan I see you introduced a new cost category for Liquid fuels. In principle, this looks good. However, the existing categories were the result of careful discussions with clients. I would confirm that we can add this new category with @KoenvanB, who was in charge of the project.

If we explicitly state "Kerosene (mix)", for example for passenger planes:

Shouldn't we then consistently apply this throughout the model? So "Diesel (mix)", "Gasoline (mix)" for passenger cars etc.

Perhaps we should also update the slide text here? It is quite long and contains a lot of information that relates to a chart and should therefore be in the chart description.

I have not thoroughly reviewed this PR. Clicking around in the front-end and everything seems to look well enough. Ready to merge, we can pick up more validation next week.
