Data Catalog - Energi Data Service
Publicly available datasets on Energi Data Service categorised in groups according to topics. Below the groups you may read more information to find the dataset you require.
Electricity Consumption
The time resolution for measuring points is hours since 1/1 2021. The development in the electricity consumption for a business before 2021, must be read with reservations.
Electricity Consumption datasets are based on the measuring points in DataHub.
Consumption per DK36/DK19 Industry Code per hour:
- DK36 business code from the SE register. All private consumption as ”Privat”.
- Released in the first edition after 8 days. Data is updated after 3 months. In principle, there may be corrections with up to 2 years delay.
- The sum per hour must correspond to the sum of production and exchange without own consumption minus transmission losses and distribution losses (net consumption without own consumption).
- Data available from 1/1 2020.

CO2 Emission and CO2 Emission Prognosis:
- Both CO2 forecast and real-time inventory are based on a last year's emissions per kWh produced per plant.
- Forecasts are based on the player plan and are issued together with results for the Day ahead trade.
- The final declaration of CO2 can only be calculated in the middle of the following calendar year, when the actually burned fuels are known.
- The deviations from the current inventory to the final inventory of CO2 are typically below 10 grams per kWh.

Your declaration
Calculate your declaration on https://din-deklaration.eloprindelse.dk
- Your declaration is based on the hour declaration.
- The declarations are used e.g., for green accounts.
- The function acts as a third party and connects individual customers' meter data with the declarations published on Energi Data Service.
- The declarations are at the hourly level but are currently only published annually.
Use the right data - Fast effect or slow precision?
Real time measurements
Data based on real time measurements (SCADA)
- The unit is always MWh/h, which is an interpolated average power.
- There might be errors in data, which will usually not be corrected.
- Data is partly calculated and is not suitable for statistical purposes.
- Not all production facilities submit real-time data, so total production is approximate.
- Consumption is calculated as the sum of production and exchange.

Electricity Production | Minute | National | Power System Right Now |
Electricity Production | 5 minutes | Price Area | Electricity Production and Exchange 5 min Realtime |
Electricity - System balance | Hour | Price Area | Electricity Balance Non-Validated |
Settlement data from DataHub
- Data based on DataHub is transmitted for the first time after 8 days. Usually only small later updates.
- Approximately 99 % correct after 1 month. In Energi Data Service it is usually updated the last time after 3 months.
- Net consumption is calculated as gross consumption minus losses.
- Must be used for statistical purposes.

Electricity Production and Consumption | Hour | Price Area | Production and Consumption - Settlement |
The dataset include:
Production delivered to the electricity grid divided into:
- Central and decentralized works
- Wind power, land and sea divided by size
- Solar cells, divided into sizes
- Hydro power
Self-consumption sun and works, both approximate
Does not have a breakdown by fuel, here reference is made to declarations.
Exchange:
- Divided into Norway, Sweden, Germany, Netherlands
Grid loss:
- Divided into international connections, internal transmission losses and distribution losses
Consumption
- Gross consumption calculated as sum of production and exchange.
- Electricity for heating, primarily electric boilers.
Rarely used on websites due to slow updating, but should always be used for statistics.
