This paper consists of two parts: an overview of existing open datasets of electricity consumption and a description of the Moroccan Buildings’ Electricity Consumption Dataset, a first of its kind, coined as MORED. The new dataset comprises electricity consumption data of various Moroccan premises. Unlike existing datasets, MORED provides three main data components: whole premises (WP) electricity consumption, individual load (IL) ground-truth consumption, and fully labeled IL signatures, from affluent and disadvantaged neighborhoods. The WP consumption data were acquired at low rates (1/5 or 1/10 samples/s) from 12 households; the IL ground-truth data were acquired at similar rates from five households for extended durations; and IL signature data were acquired at high and low rates (50 k and 4 samples/s) from 37 different residential and industrial loads. In addition, the dataset encompasses non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) metadata.
