Description
MERRA2 re-analysis data (1981-2023, 2m temperature) is used to calculate the daily electricity load of telecommunications infrastructure in GB, London, and North Scotland. The model has been trained on BT group plc data, 2016-2020, to investigate the extent of weather-variability in causing extreme demand events in heating- and cooling- driven infrastructure.
