Gaming Studio Energy Usage Log
This dataset provides detailed logs of energy consumption within a gaming studio, capturing usage by studio zone, activity type, and energy source for ESG and sustainability reporting. It enables granular analysis of energy mix, renewable usage, and associated emissions, supporting compliance, optimization, and sustainability initiatives. The dataset is ideal for tracking energy efficiency and environmental impact at both operational and strategic levels.

Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 60 rows came out of a blueprint — 15 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.
Rules it was built with
- Energy consumption tracked daily per studio zone
- All energy sources (e.g. grid, renewable, backup) itemized
- Notes required for usage spikes (>20% above average)
- Total consumption must reconcile with sub-zones sum
- At least one energy efficiency activity logged weekly
