Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 200 rows came out of a blueprint — 16 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
  • Site type: solar, wind
  • Power generated per hour (kWh: 0-300)
  • Weather impact on output simulated
  • Anomaly events flagged
