About Open Power System Data

Academic Open-Data Initiative · Europe

Open Power System Data (OPSD) was an academic open-data initiative, funded by the Open Energy Modelling Initiative and German research institutions, that compiled and harmonised data for European power system modelling. It published hourly time series for load, wind and solar generation, and day-ahead prices across 37 European countries, as well as conventional power plant lists and renewable energy unit registers. The platform is frozen since 2020 and data remains available as static downloads under open licences.
