Description

This data set that contains 4 years (Jan. 2018- Dec. 2021/Mar. 2022) of hourly measurements of energy and climate data from 45 public buildings located in Drammen, Norway. The buildings are schools (16), kindergartens (20), nursing homes (7) and offices (2). For each building, the data set contains contextual data about the buildings including their floor area, construction year, energy label, information about their heating system and ventilation system in addition to time series data of energy use and weather data. For some of the buildings, the energy measurements only contain measurements of hourly imported electricity, while the time series data for other buildings have submeters for different energy services and technologies. Researchers, energy analysts, building owners and policy makers can benefit from the dataset for e.g. hourly load disaggregation, forecasting of energy loads and flexibility, grid planning and modelling activities.
