European Energy Dependency & Renewables
Both sides of the energy-security coin in one clean Parquet: how much energy each European country must IMPORT (net-import dependency, total and by fuel) AND how much it now gets from RENEWABLES (share of overall final energy, electricity, transport and heating/cooling - the official Renewable Energy Directive metric). One row per country × measure × year since 2000. The core energy-security-and-transition gauge; joins to energy prices, gas flows and generation.

Safe to train on
Built only from a named, redistributable official source under a documented open licence - not scraped web data. No copyright grey zone, no personal data. Ships machine-readable Croissant metadata (ML Commons - loads in Hugging Face / Kaggle / Google), an AI training-licence manifest documenting source, licence and provenance for your model's data governance, and a machine-readable data dictionary (drop it into an agent / RAG prompt so the model knows every column) - all inspectable before you buy.
What's included
- Net-import dependency (all products + solid/oil/gas) AND renewable share (overall/electricity/transport/heating)
- Every European country, annual, 2000-present - the 2022 shock and the transition response
- The headline energy-security + decarbonisation metrics in one sheet
- One row per country × measure × year; joins to energy prices, gas flows, generation

Australian Power Grid (AEMO NEM)
The spot price and operational demand of Australia's National Electricity Market - one of the most volatile power markets on earth (huge solar/wind, grid batteries, price spikes to the market cap). AEMO publishes the Regional Reference Price (RRP, AUD/MWh) and operational demand (MW) per NEM region as one CSV per month × region; we stitch them into one clean multi-region, multi-metric Parquet - 5-minute from Oct-2021, 30-minute before. Mirrors the ENTSO-E / EIA / Elexon power products, extending the grid suite to the Australian continent.
