Dataset (TC20 IHD): Domestic solar PV customers using in-home displays for manual in-premises balancing
Overview
This dataset forms part of a comprehensive suite of results, derived from the CLNR project’s trials with more than 12,000 UK electricity customers. The August 2014 published datasets cover both load and generation profiles, as well as the potential for customer flexibility. The dataset is presented in an open and usable format.

| Description: | Monitoring of customers’ energy use and PV performance with additional real-time notice of excess generation (export to the grid) e.g. when PV generation exceeds current consumption do customers turn on other appliances |
| Purpose: | To understand the pattern of use that PV owners have, i.e. total generation, in-home use of this and net generation use within the home to establish if real-time information can prevent mass-export on networks in the future (entire street’s worth’s of housing exporting electricity up to the grid on sunny days) |
| Customer Numbers: | 151 |
| Data Source: | Passiv secondary meter on main supply (10 min import/export) plus PV in-line monitor (10 min) |
