Description

This dataset represents a complete European energy community based on actual data. In this scenario, a community of 250 households was built using real energy consumption and solar generation data obtained in homes throughout Europe. In total, 200 community members were assigned solar generation, while 150 were assigned a battery storage system. From the acquired sample, new profiles were created and randomly assigned to each end-user while also receiving two electric cars with information on their capacity, state-of-charge, and usage. Furthermore, it is provided the electric vehicle chargers’ information on their location, type, and cost of operation.

 

Version 1.5 update: on the Sheet EVs, lines 29 (Capacity kW), 30 (Charge kW), and 31 (Discharge kW) were updated to the correct values.
