Get Aggregated Generation per Generation Unit (16.1.A)

Source: R/en_generation.R
gen_per_gen_unit.Rd

Actual net generation output (MW) and optionally consumption data from all generation units. Data are aggregated as an average of generation outputs or consumption.

Usage

gen_per_gen_unit(
  eic = NULL,
  period_start = ymd(Sys.Date() - days(x = 1L), tz = "CET"),
  period_end = ymd(Sys.Date(), tz = "CET"),
  gen_type = NULL,
  tidy_output = TRUE,
  security_token = Sys.getenv("ENTSOE_PAT")
)

Arguments

eic

Energy Identification Code of the control area or bidding zone

period_start

POSIXct or YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format

period_end

POSIXct or YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format

gen_type

Defaults to NULL, otherwise list of generation type codes from asset_types table

tidy_output

Defaults to TRUE. If TRUE, then flatten nested tables.

security_token

Security token for ENTSO-E transparency platform

Value

A tibble::tibble() with the queried data.

  period_start = lubridate::ymd(x = "2020-01-31", tz = "CET"),
  period_end   = lubridate::ymd(x = "2020-02-06", tz = "CET"),
  gen_type     = c("B04", "B05"),
  tidy_output  = TRUE
