An R data package with the UK National Grid historical demand for electricity between April 2005 and October 2019
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 April 2005 using half-hour intervals. In
addition, the package provides a function to extract, subset and
aggregate the series into tsibble
, ts
,
xts
, zoo
, data.frame
,
data.table
, or tbl
.
The data was sourced from the National Grid UK website
