Dataset for Influence of climate change on the residential cooling demand in low-voltage distribution networks
Listed in TU Wien Research Data
Description
This dataset provides simulation results investigating the combined impacts of climate change and air conditioning (AC) adoption on low-voltage distribution grids in the diploma thesis: Buchmeier, J. (2025). Impact of Climate Scenarios and Air Conditioning Penetration on Low-Voltage Grid Stability. Diploma Thesis, TU Wien. doi.org/10.34726/hss.2025.133331 The dataset includes: Building-level profiles: Cooling demand, photovoltaic generation, and electrical baseload for ~103 buildings Grid-level impacts: Transformer loading, cable loading, and node voltages Climate scenarios: RCP4.5, RCP8.5 (both 2034), and Heatwave (extreme summer event) AC penetration levels: 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% All data is provided at 15-minute resolution for the cooling season (May 1 – September 30).
The dataset was created as part of the INFRADAPT project, funded by the Climate and Energy Fund under the program Energieforschung 2022. The dataset uses the SECURES-MET Climate Data for temperature and irradiation data in RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios for Vienna(AT130). And it uses SimBench Grid Models, namely LV Rural 3 for the base grid, PV adoption and baseload profiles.
