NEW FEAT: pathway optimiser

e think of this as outside constrains, pushing the decarbonization journey, that impacts the financials (CAPEX, OPEX). We don't necessarily view CAPEX and OPEX as constraints, but rather as outcomes of the "need and ability" to decarbonize. For example, let's say that due to a new emission cap on oil in Canada, the Firebag facility must reduce its carbon footprint by 30% by 2030. It would be great if we could apply this scenario to the asset and determine the most cost-efficient way for Firebag to achieve this target. Which technologies should be prioritized to optimize costs (CCUS, hydrogen, renewables, etc.)? Additionally, there is a time constraint (with 2030 only five years away), so CO2 reduction needs to happen quickly. The most efficient solution for a rapid ramp-up might differ from one considering the full life cycle. Ideally, we would understand the implications of this new regulation on Firebag's financial performance (CAPEX/OPEX, MACC curve, and Wedge to achieve a 30% reduction by 2030).
