A 12-month Data of Hourly Energy Consumption Levels from a Commercial-type Consumer

This is an hourly electricity consumption data with 8784 records for the whole 2016 year.

The following are the attributes in the energy_consumption_levels csv file.
3_levels: three levels (i.e. low, med, high) of energy use
5_levels: five levels (i.e. very low, low, med, high, very high) of energy use
7_levels: seven levels (i.e. level 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) of energy use in MWh
consumption: numerical value of energy use
temperature: historical hourly meteorological data (temperature) measured in Celsius degrees
hour_of_day: hour of the day (1 to 24)
day_of_week: day of the week (1 to 7)
day_of_month: day of the month (1 to 31)
month_of_year: month of the year (1 to 12)

The energy consumption is retrieved from smart metering device from a commercial-type consumer and the environmental temperature is recorded by the meteorological sensors of a specialized institute for the whole year 2016. The energy levels (3_levels, 5_levels and 7_levels) are produced by cutting the data into n number of bins (3, 5, 7) using simple statistics or using some already prepared functions. The rest of the data are already cleaned originally prepared by Pîrjan, Alexandru, et al. in their paper entitled: "Devising Hourly Forecasting Solutions Regarding Electricity Consumption in the Case of Commercial Center Type Consumers." (published in Energies 10.11 (2017): 1727) with the new added attributes on its energy levels.

本数据集为2016全年的逐小时电力消耗数据，共包含8784条记录。以下为energy_consumption_levels.csv文件中的字段说明：3_levels：将能源使用划分为3个等级（即低、中、高）；5_levels：将能源使用划分为5个等级（即极低、低、中、高、极高）；7_levels：将能源使用划分为7个等级（即等级1至7），单位为兆瓦时（MWh）；consumption：能源使用的数值型指标；temperature：以摄氏度为单位的历史逐小时气象温度数据；hour_of_day：当日时刻（取值范围为1至24）；day_of_week：当周日期（取值范围为1至7）；day_of_month：当月日期（取值范围为1至31）；month_of_year：当年月份（取值范围为1至12）。该电力消耗数据来源于某商业类用户的智能计量装置，2016全年的环境气温数据由某专业科研机构的气象传感器采集记录。数据集内的能源等级标签（3_levels、5_levels与7_levels）通过简单统计方法或预置函数，将原始能耗数据划分为3、5、7个分箱后生成。其余原始数据已完成清洗与预处理，最初由Pîrjan、Alexandru等人在其发表于Energies期刊2017年第10卷第11期、页码1727的论文"Devising Hourly Forecasting Solutions Regarding Electricity Consumption in the Case of Commercial Center Type Consumers."中整理发布，本次版本新增了能源等级相关字段。
