A time series of the national grid demand (high-voltage electric power transmission network) in the UK since 2011.
An R data package with the UK National Grid historical demand for electricity between 2011 and 2018
The UKgrid dataset is an example of a multiple seasonality time series. This time series captures the demand for electricity and its components in the UK since 2011 using half-hour intervals. In addition, the package provides a function to extract, subset and aggregate the series into ts
, xts
, zoo
, data.frame
, data.table
, or tbl
.
The data was sourced from the National Grid UK website
