Geospatial datasets of energy consumption drivers in the Ecuador's residential sector

The geospatial datasets presented here provides high-resolution gridded data respect to Population, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), GDP per capita (GDPpc), Human Development Index (HDI) and four residential energy demands for Ecuador, between 2010 and 2020. Each variable follows a specific method and uses other available data to end with the calculated datasets. Gridded population dataset primarily uses data from the Center for International Earth Science Information Network, which is calibrated using Ecuadorian official data provided by the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INEC). Gridded GDP uses data provided by the Central Bank of Ecuador (BCE), whereas GDPpc is the relationship between GDP and the previously calculated population counts. The HDI is a combination of data provided by INEC, BCE, Minister of Education and Secretary of Higher Education. The four gridded energy demand datasets for the residential sector are (i) space heating, (ii) space cooling, (iii) water heating, and (iv) total energy demand. To end with these demands, the approach combines datasets from NASA temperature with population and energy balances by the Agency for the Regulation and Control of Energy and Non-Renewable Natural Resources. These datasets provide high-profile information for long-term energy policy and planning for national and local government. These datasets are also important for the research community and enterprises to prioritize energy research and development.本次发布的地理空间数据集包含2010至2020年厄瓜多尔的高分辨率格点数据，覆盖人口、国内生产总值（Gross Domestic Product, GDP）、人均国内生产总值（GDP per capita, GDPpc）、人类发展指数（Human Development Index, HDI）四大类社会经济指标，以及四类居民生活能源需求。各变量均采用专属建模方法，结合现有公开数据生成最终计算数据集。格点人口数据集主要采用国际地球科学信息网络中心（Center for International Earth Science Information Network）的原始数据，并借助厄瓜多尔国家统计与普查研究所（National Institute of Statistics and Censuses, INEC）提供的官方统计数据进行校准。格点国内生产总值数据集采用厄瓜多尔中央银行（Central Bank of Ecuador, BCE）提供的数据，而人均国内生产总值则为国内生产总值与此前计算得到的人口总量的比值。人类发展指数数据集整合了国家统计与普查研究所、厄瓜多尔中央银行、厄瓜多尔教育部以及高等教育秘书处提供的多源数据。居民生活领域的四类格点能源需求数据集分别为：(i) 空间供暖需求、(ii) 空间制冷需求、(iii) 生活热水需求以及(iv) 总能源需求。该类数据集的生成方法整合了美国国家航空航天局（National Aeronautics and Space Administration, NASA）的气温数据、人口数据，以及厄瓜多尔能源与非再生自然资源监管控制署（Agency for the Regulation and Control of Energy and Non-Renewable Natural Resources）提供的能源平衡数据。本数据集可为国家及地方政府的长期能源政策制定与规划工作提供高价值参考信息，同时也可为科研学界与企业开展能源领域研发优先级规划提供重要支撑。
