An important milestone has been reached for the Smart Energy Research Lab (SERL) as the first edition of the longitudinal Observatory dataset has been made available via the UKDS Secure Lab to accredited researchers working on approved projects.

The “Smart Energy Research Lab Observatory Data, 2019-2020: Secure Access” (Study Number 8666) catalogue record has been created in the UK Data Service system. Documentation about the dataset is publicly available via the above link however access to the dataset is controlled. We expect to update this dataset with new data on a roughly quarterly basis.

Accredited researchers can use this dataset to submit their research projects for review by SERL’s Data Governance Board. Find out more here about how to access the SERL data.
