kayadata

This package loads Kaya-identity data, synthesized from several sources.

To install and load the package, first install either the pacman or devtools package from CRAN:

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jonathan-g/kayadata")
library(kayadata)

or

install.packages("pacman")
library(pacman)
p_load_gh("jonathan-g/kayadata")

Once you’ve installed it, then you just need to use the command library(kayadata) to load the package.

Some of the functions the package provides are:

mexico_data = get_kaya_data("Mexico") 
mexico_data %>% filter(year >= 1965) %>% 
  select(region:ef) %>%
  head()
## # A tibble: 6 × 10
##   region  year     P     G     E     F     g     e     f    ef

us_kaya = get_kaya_data("United States")
plot_kaya(us_kaya, "ef", y_lab = "Carbon intensity of economy",
          start_year = 2000, stop_year = 2010, log_scale = TRUE,
          trend_line = TRUE, font_size = 10)

world_kaya = get_kaya_data("World")
plot_kaya(world_kaya, "P", start_year = 2000, stop_year = 2010, 
          log_scale = FALSE, trend_line = FALSE, font_size = 10)

* get_fuel_mix: Get the fuel mix (coal, gas, oil, nuclear, and renewables) for a region or country. Example:

mexico_mix = get_fuel_mix("Mexico")
mexico_mix
## # A tibble: 5 × 5
##   region  year fuel        quads   frac
##   <chr>  <int> <ord>       <dbl>  <dbl>
## 1 Mexico  2023 Oil         3.64  0.454 
## 2 Mexico  2023 Natural Gas 3.33  0.416 
## 3 Mexico  2023 Coal        0.250 0.0312
## 4 Mexico  2023 Nuclear     0.105 0.0131
## 5 Mexico  2023 Renewables  0.690 0.0861
plot_fuel_mix(mexico_mix, font_size = 10)

After you install the package, you can get more help inside RStudio by typing help(package="kayadata") in the R console window.
