Medium-Low Voltage Energy Distribution Network and Smart Meter Dataset

This data brief presents a comprehensive data set for a medium to low voltage energy distribution network with supplementary sensory data. The network of interest is located in the vicinity of Porsgrunn, Norway, currently under the operational jurisdiction of Lede AS, who to date, distribute energy to over 200,000 energy consumers in Vestfold and Telemark municipality. The network grid data, originally exported in a general Grid Model Exchange Specification (CGMES) data format, have been processed to ensure sufficient data quality for further analysis that can include, but not limited to, load flow and optimal power flow analysis. The network models of interest cover a network aerial that distribute energy to approximately $6900$ energy customers which differentiate among residential, commercial and industrial load profiles. Historical smart sensor data, as reported by Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) installed locally at the premises of the respective energy customers, have been processed and supplemented with additional energy price and weather data. The aforementioned datasets spans the period 2022-01-01 to 2024-09-30 at a 1 hour resolution. The presented datasets are highly reusable in the context of load forecast scenario planning and flexible energy management analysis with the specific focus on low-voltage distribution energy network operation. The comprehensive nature of this dataset will facilitate ongoing multi-disciplinary investigations in support of the green energy transition.
