Heating and cooling electrical demand across Australia over the last decade

Time-series estimates of thermostatically-controlled load for individual zone substations from across Australia.

Location ACT, NSW, Qld, SA, Vic, WA
Full description

Drawing on data science techniques that link weather data, zone substation electricity consumption, Bayesian inference technologies and thermostatically controlled load simulation together, the NEAR Program team has developed half-hourly estimates of cooling- and heating-related electricity consumption for more than a thousand zone substations across Australia. This release provides preliminary data for up to a decade of electricity consumption associated with thermostatically controlled load devices, together with methodological reporting.
