Functions

main(config)

Sets up a ProFAST financial model for an iron reduction plant, including costs, production capacity, and economic assumptions.

h2integrate.simulation.technologies.iron.martin_ore.finance_model.main(config)

Sets up a ProFAST financial model for an iron reduction plant, including costs, production capacity, and economic assumptions.

This function initializes and configures a ProFAST financial model using cost data, site-specific parameters, and inflation adjustments. It categorizes costs into capital, fixed operational expenses, and variable operational expenses, including both model-defined and top-down costs.

Parameters:

config (object) --

Configuration object containing: - cost (object): Includes costs_df (DataFrame) with cost names, types,

units, and site-specific costs.

• site (dict): Contains name (str), the site name.

• params (dict): Contains various financial and operational parameters, including:

  • operational_year (int): Year the plant starts operation.

  • installation_years (int): Number of years for installation.

  • plant_life (int): Expected plant lifetime in years.

  • gen_inflation (float): General inflation rate.

  • cost_year (int): Reference year for cost inflation adjustments.

  • financial_assumptions (dict): Key-value pairs of financial settings.

Returns:

tuple --

A tuple containing:

• sol (float): Solved price required for economic viability.

• summary (dict): Summary of key financial outputs from ProFAST.

• price_breakdown (dict): Detailed breakdown of cost components.

• pf (ProFAST.ProFAST): The ProFAST model instance used for the calculations.
