Daily profiles (2020) of load of a rural synthetic electricity distribution network from UK – ATTEST project

This dataset was prepared under the framework of the ATTEST project, financed by the European Commission with grant number 864298. The dataset contains information about a synthetic UK Distribution network located in a rural area (Exchange St.) as in 2020. A network file (including grid topology, nodes, generators, consumption, all of which connected by power lines or transformers) and auxiliary files are provided. The network file (MatPower format) includes a “snapshot” or “steady-state” at a given time with a converged power flow solution. The grid, which is operated at 6.6 kV, has 66 nodes and 66 branches. The auxiliary load data comprises 1  typical winter day gathering the active and reactive consumption at each node of the network in intervals of 1 hour.
