Format Details
The data is supplied in csv format compressed using zip.
A header row is used to define the fields :
FromDate , ToDate : the data on the rows falls into the range defined ie FromDate <= DATA < ToDate - this is in the format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss
Hours – total number of hours between FromDate and ToDate
Total – This is a total of all the averages for all the fuels & interconnectors.
For each fuel type and interconnector, 5 fields exist:
Ave_ : this is the average power for the fuel for the period defined in fromdate to todate.
Min_ : this is the minimum power for the fuel for the period defined in fromdate to todate.
Max_ : this is the maximum power for the fuel for the period defined in fromdate to todate.
Samples_ : this is the number of samples for the power in the period defined in fromdate to todate.
All power is in MW. To calculate energy (MWH) multiple the value by the number of hours in the period (the Hours field contains this value).
Eg if the period for each row is 1 hour then MW = MWH.
Eg if the period for each row is 1 day (24hr) then the energy for the day would be then the MW value x 24.
Interpolated values - If samples are zero then an interpolated value has been used.
Biomass was included in Other until 2017-11-11 20:25. After this time it was moved into it own fuel type. Before this the Biomass fields will contain zero with samples at zero.
Solar started being reported on 2016-01-01 00:00. Please see the Sheffield University website for more information about how this data is collected. Before this the Solar fields will contain zero with samples at zero.
