files tag_electricity and tag_fuel_types

[sandrinecharousset]

Those 2 files are 90% identical : is there a reason why the 2 exist? SHouldn't we merge them? It may create unconcistencies if one is modified and not the other....
@danielhuppmann @tburandt @erikfilias any idea?

From my understanding, we created the tag_fuel_types at the beginning for naming the sources of the electricity generation.
However, now, it is the purpose of tag_electricity. I'm not sure the purpose of the fuel types since it is not considered for electricity generation, but maybe it is useful for other energy carriers.

@erikfilias , I finally digged the directory and found an old discussion raised by @HauHe about this which explains why there are 2 different files
What I understand is that fuel_types is only for fuels eg you will find gas|biomethane but not gas|ocgt, or solar and not solar|pv
while electricity_input is for creating all names of different power plants, where you may have much more different cases such as gas|biomethane|ocgt , gas|ccgt......
So in the end I believe that unless we find a better way (which may be tricky), we stick to that separation.....
Sorry for raising an irrelevant issue
