 ### Added
+- Feature CO2 and fuel module (#536)
+  Adds a fuel module which enables modeling of fuel usage via (1) a constant heat rate and (2) 
+  piecewise-linear approximation of heat rate curves. 
+  Adds a CO2 module that determines the CO2 emissions based on fuel consumption, CO2 capture 
+  fraction, and whether the feedstock is biomass.
 - Feature electrolysis basic (#525)
   Adds hydrogen electrolyzer model which enables the addition of hydrogen electrolyzer
   demands along with optional clean supply constraints.

+# PiecewiseFuel_CO2
+
+**PiecewiseFuel_CO2** is a 24 hr example and contains only one zone. It is condensed for easy and quick testing of CO2, biomass, and piecewise fuel usage related functions of the GenX. This testing 
+system only includes natural gas ccs, wind, and biomass with ccs, all set at a fixed initial 
+capacity, and does not allow for building additional capacity. For natural gas ccs generator, we provide picewise fuel usage (PWFU) parameters to represent the fuel consumption at differernt load point. Please refer to "PiecewiseFuelUsage_data_description.pptx" for a sylized visual representation of PWFU segments and corresponding data requirements. When UC >= 1 and PWFU parameters are provided in "Generator_data.csv", the standard heat rate (i.e., Heat_Rate_MMBTU_per_MWh) will not be used unless UC = 0. 
+
+To run the model, first navigate to the example directory at `GenX/Example_Systems/PiecewiseFuel_CO2`:
+
+`cd("Example_Systems/PiecewiseFuel_CO2")`
+
+Next, ensure that your settings in `GenX_settings.yml` are correct.  The linear clustering unit commitment method (UC = 2) is used. The default settings use the solver HiGHS (`Solver: HiGHS`). A mass-based carbon cap of 0 t CO<sub>2</sub> (net-zero) is specified in the `CO2_cap.csv` input file. 
+
+Once the settings are confirmed, run the model with the `Run.jl` script in the example directory:
+
+`include("Run.jl")`
+
+Once the model has completed, results will write to the `Results` directory.
