Data

This page inidactes all data sources used. Primarly data from publicaly available open-sources have been used. The only exception on this is the low voltage transformer capacity, which has been distributed under NDA.

The public data can be downloaded, directly from its sources, or the actual data used in the model from the github repositories. The list below is a general overview of main data sources used.

Subtitute non-public data

To substitute this data for public usage of the model the transformer capacity can be seen as a funtion from the connected households, averiging a capacity of 1.5kW per household.
