Mostly looking good. Two pieces of information are missing that I could not infer based on the information that you have added. Check my comments. After you have added them we are good to merge !

From this information I cannot find the value in the document. Did you extract the value from Figure 4-7 maybe? If so, can you add to the comment what the value in the figure is, that you converted from EUR-2022/km to EUR-2022/(m^3-H2O/h)/km?
