Hi all,
Have you been looking for global demand data? Open Energy Transition has created an open-source collection of Global Electricity Demand Data (Hourly & Sub-hourly) - Awesome Electricity Demand - and we’d love your contribution!
You can use these datasets to:
- Validate and calibrate energy system models with real-world demand patterns
- Analyze seasonal, weekly, and daily electricity consumption trends
- Support grid planning and infrastructure investment decisions
- Develop demand forecasting models
We are also working on a Demand Forecasting Model v1.0.
If you have data to share (we’re especially looking for time series at 5–60 minute resolution over multiple years), please contribute on GitHub: https://github.com/open-energy-transition/Awesome-Electricity-Demand
