title: Future electricity demand time series for European Countries from 2023 to 2100

description: This dataset represents the future time series of electricity demand for European countries from 2023 to 2100, aligning with the findings presented in our paper 'Future Electricity Demand for Europe: Unraveling the Dynamics of the Temperature Response Function,' published in Applied Energy. To cite this dataset, please cite the published paper https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2024.123387

This dataset includes electricity demand data for 36 European countries, with each year being presented as a distinct .CSV file. Data for all years in each country are then compressed in a single .ZIP file. 

The column explanation is as below:



'country_code': the country code in 2 digits

'year': the projection year

'month': month of the year

'day': day of the month
