Great Britain’s Shared Axis Energy Diagram Daily resolution Data from: January 2014 to June 2017 Dr. Grant Wilson Updated slidepacks can be found at the downloads section of www.energy-charts.org which has the shortened URL of http://bit.ly/energycharts 21st July 2017

The underlying electrical and natural gas data are available at a geographical level of Great Britain rather than the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland is not included). The liquid fuels data is available at a United Kingdom level (that includes Northern Ireland). All data is publicly available and sourced from the websites of National Grid, Elexon and the department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.

An explanation of the evolution of the diagram is explained in the open access publication: Energy Data Visualization Requires Additional Approaches to Continue to be Relevant in a World with Greater Low-Carbon Generation http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fenrg.2016.00033/full http://bit.ly/saediagram

So please feel free to use under these license conditions. On rare occasions, there are errors in the data that have been manually corrected. For most erroneous zero values, the previous valid non-zero value is held until the next valid non-zero value. For a few other erroneous values, a straight line of values between the two valid values is calculated. The occurrence of the errors is rare enough to be negligible, and is generally an error with many of the values in a particular time period.
