message_ix_models.model.buildings.rc_afofi

Compute AFOFI shares of RC.

AFOFI is Agriculture, FOrestry, and FIsheries; RC is Residential and Commercial.

In brief: the MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM “sector” (or group of sectors) referred to as “rc” or “RC” is inclusive of not only residential and commercial, but also agricultural, forestry, fisheries, and some other sectors.

When linking the buildings models (ACCESS, STURM) to MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM, the specific residential and commercial sectors are represented by those models, but the remainder of the composite “RC” sector, i.e. AFOFI, must still be represented in MESSAGE.

These functions give a share of AFOFI in RC for demands of the “rc_therm” and “rc_spec” commodities; or activities of the technologies producing these commodities. return_PERC_AFOFI() was brought into message_data from the (private, unpublished) iiasa/MESSAGE_Buildings repository.
