SAMPLE Half-Hourly Electricity Consumption Data | UK Coverage

This dataset contains standardised household electricity consumption records measured at 30-minute intervals, reflecting the industry standard resolution used across the UK and many other countries for smart meter reporting. Each record provides consumption in kilowatt-hours (kWh), alongside the associated fuel type, ensuring compatibility with regulatory frameworks and analytical practices used in energy markets.
Key Features

Standardised Half-Hourly Resolution:
Consumption is recorded every 30 minutes, aligning directly with the settlement periods used in electricity markets, grid balancing, and billing systems. This makes the dataset particularly useful for modelling, forecasting, and compliance tasks.

Smart Meter Compatible:
The structure and frequency of the data comply with smart meter data standards, making it suitable for testing, validating, or demonstrating smart meter infrastructure and analytics workflows.

Clean, Consistent Format:
The dataset is provided in a CSV format (halfhourly_readings_elec.csv), with straightforward fields that can be easily ingested into analytical tools, energy modelling platforms, or regulatory reporting systems.
