title: Data bundle for egon-data: A transparent and reproducible data processing pipeline for energy system modeling

description: egon-data provides a transparent and reproducible open data based data processing pipeline for generating data models suitable for energy system modeling. The data is customized for the requirements of the research project eGon. The research project aims to develop tools for an open and cross-sectoral planning of transmission and distribution grids. For further information please visit the eGon project website or its Github repository.
egon-data retrieves and processes data from several different external input sources. As not all data dependencies can be downloaded automatically from external sources we provide a data bundle to be downloaded by egon-data.
The following data sets are part of the available data bundle:

emobility

Data on eMobility mit_trip_data:motorized individual travel - individual trips of electric vehicles (EV) generated with a modified version of simBEV v0.1.3 (https://github.com/rl-institut/simbev/tree/1f87c716d14ccc4a658b8d2b01fd12b88a4334d5). simBEV generates driving profiles for BEVs and PHEVs based upon MID data (BMVI) per RegioStaR7 region type (BBSR).

household_electricity_demand_profiles

Annual profiles in hourly resolution of electricity demand of private households for different household types (singles, couples, other) with varying number of elderly and children.The profiles were created using a bottom-up load profile generator by Fraunhofer IEE developed in the Bachelor's thesis "Auswirkungen verschiedener Haushaltslastprofile auf PV-Batterie-Systeme" by Jonas Haack, Fachhochschule Flensburg, December 2012.The columns are named as follows: "<HH_TYPE_PREFIX>a<PROFILE_ID>", e.g. P2a0000 is the first profile of a couple's household with 2 children. See publication below for the list of prefixes. Values are given in Wh.A related conference paper can be obtained here: http://publica.fraunhofer.de/documents/N-374761.html

household_heat_demand_profiles

Sample heat time series including hot water and space heating for single- and multi-familiy houses. The profiles were created using the loadprofile generator by Fraunhofer IEE developed in the Master's thesis "Synthesis of a heat and electrical load profile for single and multi-family houses used for subsequent performance tests of a multi-component energy system", Simon Ruben Drauz, RWTH Aachen University, March 2016
