Electrification Futures Study Load Profiles

This data set includes hourly load profiles developed for the Electrification Futures Study (EFS). The load profiles represent projected end-use electricity demand for various scenarios of electrification (Reference, Medium, High) and technology advancement (Slow, Moderate, Rapid), developed using the EnergyPATHWAYS (EP) model, as described in Mai et al. (2018). The EP load profiles were further calibrated for use in the ReEDS capacity expansion model (detailed in forthcoming EFS analyses), thus numerical values in this data set differ slightly from those reported in Mai et al. (2018). Load profiles are provided for a subset of years (2018, 2020, 2024, 2030, 2040, 2050) and are aggregated to the state, sector, and select subsector level.

本数据集收录了为《电气化未来研究》（EFS）编制的小时负荷曲线。负荷曲线描绘了针对不同电气化情景（参考、中等、高）和技术进步阶段（缓慢、适中、快速）预测的终端电力需求，这些情景系采用EnergyPATHWAYS（EP）模型构建，如Mai等人在2018年所述。EP负荷曲线随后经过进一步校准，以适用于ReEDS容量扩展模型（详情将在即将发表的EFS分析中阐述），因此本数据集中的数值与Mai等人（2018年）所报告的数值略有差异。负荷曲线提供了一组年份的子集（2018年、2020年、2024年、2030年、2040年、2050年）的数据，并按州、部门和选定子部门级别进行汇总。Mai, Trieu, Paige Jadun, Jeffrey Logan, Colin McMillan, Matteo Muratori, Daniel Steinberg, Laura Vimmerstedt, Ryan Jones, Benjamin Haley, 和 Brent Nelson. 2018. 电气化未来研究：美国电技术采用及电力消费情景。国家可再生能源实验室。NREL/TP-6A20-71500. https://doi.org/10.2172/1459351.
