Model code:

stateON = AssetState('ON')
addEnergyProduction(asset, stateON)
yieldRatio = getAssetData(asset, YIELD)
co2YieldRatio = asset.getData(CO2_CONSUMPTION_YIELD)
consumption = asset.getParameter(ENERGY_PICKUP)
co2Consumption = asset.getParameter(CO2_PICKUP)
production = asset.getParameter(ENERGY_DELIVERY)
addEnergyYield(stateON, yieldRatio, consumption, production, isInputA=True, isInputB=False)
addEnergyYield(stateON, co2YieldRatio, production, co2Consumption, isInputA=False, isInputB=True)
finalize(stateON)
