GreaterQF v3.2 public release archive: Index2_EnergyHourly.csvInput observations

Where: GreaterQFV3.2.7z/V3.2/Index2_EnergyHourly.csv, ElUNr_Wi rows 1-144

The public-release pointer records archive SHA-256 34ae31d1270068cd7b1ec277eab3e13a8ed0593e17589e0bf614bca5988f442d and size 30,435,425 bytes. The exact retained archive contains V3.2/Index2_EnergyHourly.csv, SHA-256 cbae41035e112e0d32805bf64d6ab9cfa7ae530f901f4ba4b4aaa866f791cde2. Its first, second and third 48-row ElUNr_Wi blocks are weekday, Saturday and Sunday profiles.

Where: GreaterQF v3.2 profile selection in Calcs3.py

Selects the weekday, Saturday or Sunday 48-row block and uses the domestic unrestricted column for domestic electricity and gas; UK public holidays are classified as Sundays.

High-resolution (space, time) anthropogenic heat emissions: London 1970–2025Validation

Where: Section 2.1, Buildings, ERC load-reference profiles, p. 1758

States that 30-minute ERC domestic and industrial load-reference profiles cover weekdays, Saturday and Sunday at five times of year, and that domestic unrestricted electricity supplies the domestic gas profile as well as the sub-daily building-energy schedule.

Where: Table I, ERC/1 Buildings energy load profiles, p. 1756

Identifies the UK Energy Research Centre data portal as the source used by the model.

Electricity user load profiles by profile classValidation

Where: UKERC/CEDA dataset 5af8ae29-86a7-4e8c-9fe4-1e2d99d9fb96

The authoritative Elexon dataset defines Profile Class 01 as Domestic Unrestricted and supplies half-hourly weekday, Saturday and Sunday profiles for the five seasons. The currently served rounded version does not numerically replace the exact GreaterQF v3.2 artifact used in this derivation.

SUEWS database pre-migration workbook: database.xlsxLater compilation

Where: Historical database rows 60240940 and 60240942

Preserves the exact residential weekend and weekday vectors, the London identity and Ref 90240007 that resolves to Iamarino et al.; this is compilation lineage rather than proof that the paper prints the vectors.

Assessment findings

Namesupported
The stable Iamarino name records the calculation lineage through the paper and the two pre-migration residential rows; it does not claim that the paper prints the final 24-hour vectors.
Targetsupported
Iamarino et al. use the ERC domestic unrestricted load profile as the sub-daily building-energy schedule, and the GreaterQF artifact labels the exact input column ElUNr_Wi.
Valuessupported
Adjacent pairs of the first 48 ElUNr_Wi values, divided by their total 48.000, reproduce the working-day vector exactly. Independently normalising the following Saturday and Sunday blocks, pairing their half-hours, and taking their equal mean reproduces the holiday vector exactly.
Sourcesupported
The exact 24-hour outputs are a database calculation over GreaterQF input data, not numbers printed by Iamarino et al. The active source is therefore unreferenced; legacy Ref 90240007 is retained separately, while the sidecar records the paper, original Elexon dataset lineage and exact archived calculation artifact without crediting any of them with the derived output.
issue #338
Placesupported
Both the article and the GreaterQF release identify London as the application domain.
Representativenesssupported
The profile is used throughout the Greater London building-energy calculation, supporting city application scope rather than a single measurement site.
Methodsupported
Calculated records the deterministic half-hour pairing, within-day normalisation and equal Saturday-Sunday averaging that converts the archived 48-point inputs to the stored 24-point vectors.
Identitysupported
Pre-migration rows 60240942 and 60240940 are respectively the London residential weekday and weekend entries named Iamarino; migration combines them as working_day and holiday without changing their order or values.

Derivation

other · working_day[h] = (Wd[2h] + Wd[2h+1]) / sum(Wd); holiday[h] = 0.5 * ((Sat[2h] + Sat[2h+1]) / sum(Sat) + (Sun[2h] + Sun[2h+1]) / sum(Sun)), for h = 0..23. · Aggregate adjacent half-hours from the GreaterQF winter domestic-unrestricted profiles; normalise each day type separately, and take an equal Saturday-Sunday mean for the holiday profile.

Scientific note

The scientific and numeric lineages are distinct. Iamarino et al. document that the London model uses UKERC domestic-unrestricted reference profiles, while Elexon/UKERC preserve the originating profile-class dataset and definitions. The exact higher-precision half-hour inputs used here survive in the GreaterQF v3.2 public-release archive. The deterministic calculation above reproduces both stored residential vectors, but no located publication prints those final 24 values. The record therefore moves from a misleading paper citation to an explicit unreferenced calculation, preserving Ref 90240007 only as historical metadata. Stable path, name, place, representativeness, values and legacy IDs are unchanged.
