Dataset Overview: Natural Gas Energy Generation (Hourly)

This dataset provides detailed insights into hourly energy generation from natural gas sources, specifically CCGT (Combined Cycle Gas Turbine) and OCGT (Open Cycle Gas Turbine). It covers the period from June 24, 2022, to June 25, 2023, with 8,782 entries. The data has been aggregated and simplified for energy trend analysis and modelling.

Key Features:
Time Period: June 24, 2022 - June 25, 2023
Frequency: Hourly
Total Entries: 8,782
File Format: CSV
Columns:
Time Stamp: Hourly timestamps, stored as datetime.
Gas (MWs): Total energy generated from natural gas (in megawatts), stored as float.
Data Processing: The original data, extracted in half-hourly intervals from the Modo Energy Platform, was cleaned and consolidated as follows:
Columns Filtered: Combined CCGT and OCGT to represent total gas generation (Gas (MWs) column).
Resampling: Converted from half-hourly to hourly timestamps.

About CCGT and OCGT Energy:
CCGT: A highly efficient form of gas power generation that combines gas and steam turbines for maximum efficiency.
OCGT: A simpler and faster-responding turbine system, often used for peak energy demands.
Both types were combined to reflect the total energy output from natural gas.
This dataset is ideal for exploring energy trends, forecasting, and energy market analysis.
