Really should be zero for generator?

Doug has previously shared that the applicability of MACRS to generators is quite complicated: “depending on whether the generator is treated as attached to the building, whether it is eligible for a section 179 deduction, as well as whether it is >500kW. In practice, this makes for a range from 1 year to 40 years (!).” I think we could do something more sophisticated in the future, but should not assume 100% for now

Ok, I'm fine to change it to zero, or make it consistent with the other techs at 0.6. I'll let you decide.

Doug and Dan have agreed with 0% so I feel good about that!
