Smart Utility Consumption Tracker
This dataset provides granular, time-stamped IoT-based readings of electricity, water, and gas consumption across diverse assets, including detailed location, cost, and sustainability metrics. It enables benchmarking, anomaly detection, and supports green initiatives through actionable data for operations and sustainability teams. The structure is optimized for analytics, reporting, and integration with energy management platforms.

Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 120 rows came out of a blueprint — 21 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.
- Each asset records electricity, water, and gas consumption daily via IoT sensors.
- Flag readings 20% above average as 'anomaly' for investigation.
- Calculate total and average consumption per asset monthly.
- Tag assets meeting ENERGY STAR benchmarks as 'efficient'.
- Include timestamps and sensor status for each reading.
