Microgrids will play a key role in the future energy landscape and their economic operation is a crucial technical challenge. This dataset includes some years of historical building consumption and solar panel production data, together with the associated historical forecasts generated by Schneider Electric’s Analytics & AI Forecasting component.

This dataset allows to test battery energy management strategies on buildings equipped with solar panels. It also offers a rich pool of realistic microgrid configurations that can be used for;

Calibrating load and photovoltaic forecast models

Microgrid control algorithms

Optimal battery sizing

Other quantitative tasks relative to microgrid simulation

An example of benchmark, based on this dataset, can be found in github.
