March 2025: Strengthened REMIND's Gas-to-Liquids (GtL) FT modeling in remindmodel/remind through (1) a scenario configuration overhaul with a CSV-based parameter set and updated efficiency values, plus removal of an outdated gasft config to streamline parameter handling; (2) enhanced GtL FT process documentation with efficiency estimations and external references to improve transparency and governance. These changes improve scenario transparency, policy-trajectory alignment, and maintainability, enabling faster, more reliable analyses. Technologies demonstrated include CSV-driven configuration, parametrisation updates, and documentation governance.
