Visualize a weather object — plot

Plots the sub-annual weather factor wval (a capacity / availability factor) of a weather object, in one of three styles:

"heatmap" (default) — a calendar heatmap (finest timeframe on y, next on x), faceted by region; the value's unit is on the fill legend;
"line" — the factor against the finest time level (e.g. hour), one line per coarser level (e.g. season), faceted by region;
"area" — the same as "line" with filled areas.

The value axis (fill for the heatmap, y for line/area) is labelled with the object's @unit (or "capacity factor" if unset).

Usage

plot_weather(
  object,
  type = c("heatmap", "line", "area"),
  calendar = NULL,
  palette = "D",
  ...
)

# S3 method for class 'weather'
autoplot(object, type = c("heatmap", "line", "area"), calendar = NULL, ...)

Arguments

object: A weather object.
type: One of "heatmap" (default), "line", "area".
calendar: A calendar object (or format string) giving the slice layout. Recommended: for season-based calendars the layout cannot be inferred from slice names alone. If NULL, the layout is guessed and, when that fails, slices are shown on an ordered axis.
palette: Viridis color option for the heatmap fill.
...: Reserved for future use.

Value

A ggplot object (or NULL, invisibly, if there is nothing to plot).

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
data("calendars", package = "energyRt")
W <- getObject(utopia_modules$electricity$reg3$repo, name = "WSOL", drop = TRUE)
plot_weather(W, calendar = calendars$utopia_s4h24)                 # heatmap
plot_weather(W, type = "line", calendar = calendars$utopia_s4h24)
} # }
