Green Button energy data

Question

The Green Button Data program in the US allows energy consumers to easily download their consumption data in a standard XML format. With that exported file, they can upload to a 3rd party site or app, who will provide a customized report.

My question: Are there any public data sets of real consumer green button data? For example, home-efficiency enthusiasts who have made their data public, either alone or as a group?

(I'll self-answer with some better know sample data sources)

Answer 1

Some better known sample data sets

• Electricity usage data that reflect different usage patterns common among PG&E customers

• Department of Energy Data by Design Challenge sample data

• Green Button sample from Texas - two households

• OpenEI Energy Datasets (I can't quickly find any Green Button formats)

• SDGE (San Diego Gas & Electric) Electric Interval Data Feb 1 2011 to Feb 1 2012 (CSV?)

• NIST Software Development Kit - seems to be only simulated time series

• Ontario Green Button Sample Datasets - Six total, including hourly, daily, and monthly datasets.
