Power market datasets

Power Markets

This package includes data from power markets in Europe.

After installing the package, data is available as an intake catalog. As an example:

import intake

generation = intake.cat["markets"].generation(country="EL").read()
available_capacity = intake.cat["markets"].capacity(country="EL").read()

In addition, the package offers two CLI commands: one to download data from TSOs and one to extract datasets.

The type of data to download can be:

• dispatch includes the inputs and results of the day-ahead scheduling
• availabilities includes data about the available capacity for all dispatchable power generation units
• reservoirs includes data about the filling rates of the hydropower plants
• ntc includes data about the net transfer capability for power imports and exports.

The datasets to extract from the raw data can be:

• load: extracts the load dataset from the dispatch data
• reserves: extracts the secondary reserves dataset from the dispatch data
• committed: extracts the committed capacity dataset from the dispatch data
• imports: extracts the power imports dataset from the dispatch data
• exports: extracts the power exports dataset from the dispatch data
• res: extracts the RES generation dataset from the dispatch data
• available: extracts the available capacity dataset from the availabilities data
• reservoirs: extracts the water reservoir levels (for hydro plants) dataset from the reservoirs data
• ntc_imports: extracts dataset for total NTC (net transfer capacity) for imports from the ntc data
• ntc_exports: extracts dataset for total NTC (net transfer capacity) for exports from the ntc data.

Use

power-markets fetch -h

to see the arguments for the fetch command, and

power-markets extract -h

for the extract command.

The power-markets package can be installed using pip:

pip install power-markets
