This product is part of the Amazon Sustainability Data Initiative and contains data sets that are publicly available for anyone to access and use. No subscription is required. Unless specifically stated in the applicable data set documentation, data sets available through the Amazon Sustainability Data Initiative are not provided and maintained by AWS.
Description
Projects that use the dsgrid toolkit assemble bottom-up descriptions of electricity demand and related data that are highly resolved geographically, temporally, and sectorally. Typically modelers describe multiple scenarios of future energy use at hourly resolution, suitable for inclusion in long-term power system planning models, i.e., capacity expansion and production cost models.
