Table Information
scenario
Title | FES Scenario |
---|---|
Type | string |
Description | The scenario to which this data corresponds. |
Comment | LW: Leading the Way CT: Consumer Transformation ST: System Transformation SP: Steady Progression |
Example | SP |
Unit | N/A |
GSP
Title | Location |
---|---|
Type | string |
Description | Mix of grid supply points as registered with Elexon and direct connect sites. |
Comment | |
Example | ABHA1 |
Unit | N/A |
DemandPk
Title | Peak Demand |
---|---|
Type | number |
Description | Expected demand at the specified location at the time of the highest total demand for the nation. |
Comment | Winter Peak is a view of peak demand between the hours of 17:00 and 18:00 – typically November-February on a week day |
Example | 82.07 |
Unit | MW |
DemandAM
Title | Minimum Demand (Summer Morning) |
---|---|
Type | number |
Description | Expected demand at the specified location at the time of the lowest total demand for the nation |
Comment | Summer Minimum AM is a view of demand between 0500-0600, typically in June-August on a Summer Sunday morning. |
Example | 33.379 |
Unit | MW |
DemandPM
Title | Minimum Demand (Summer Afternoon) |
---|---|
Type | number |
Description | Expected demand at the specified location at the lowest summer afternoon national demand. |
Comment | Summer Minimum PM is a view of demand between 13:00-1400, typically June-August, Summer Sunday afternoon. This period is interesting to study as, whilst not being as low as the morning demand, high solar output will create a low demand on the transmission network. |
Example | 47.38 |
Unit | MW |
