Hi Gerd,

Such an edit can improve data consistency and your idea sounds good.

As a member of the team who supported the power refinement proposal
including the generator: source key, I just warn regarding the generator
value which was used instead of power=plant.
Power_source or generator:source should be used on devices which are
generating power.
May we can take advantage of such an edit to move this information on
devices instead on buildings or sites ?

All the best

François
