COVID-EMDA+ (Coronavirus Disease - Electricity Market Data Aggregation+)

This data hub, COVID-EMDA+ (Coronavirus Disease - Electricity Market Data Aggregation+), is specifically designed to track the potential impacts of COVID-19 on the existing U.S. electricity markets. Many different data sources are merged and harmonized here in order to enable further interdisciplinary researches. (https://github.com/tamu-engineering-research/COVID-EMDA)

This data hub contains five major components: U.S. electricity market data, public health data, weather data, mobile device location data, and satellite images. For some categories, multiple data sources are carefully gathered to ensure accuracy.

  • Electricity Market Data includes the generation mix, metered load profiles and day-ahead locational marginal prices data. We also include the day-ahead load forecasting, congestion price, forced outage and renewable curtailment data as the supplementary source. (Link: CAISO, MISO, ISO-NE, NYISO, PJM, SPP, ERCOT, EIA, EnergyOnline)

  • Public Health Data includes the COVID-19 confirmed cases, deaths data, infection rate and fatal rate. We aggregate and fine-tune the data to market and city levels. (Link: John Hopkins CSSE)

  • Weather Data includes temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and dew point data. Typical weather stations are selected according to their geological locations and data quality. (Link: Iowa State Univ IEM, NOAA)

  • Mobile Device Location Data includes social distancing data and patterns of visits to Point of Interests (POIs). These data are derived by aggregating and processing the real-time GPS location of cellphone users by Census Block Group.

  • Night Time Light (NTL) Satellite Data includes the raw satellite image taken at night time in each area. (Link: NTL Images from NASA)
