standardlastprofile: BDEW Standard Load Profiles for Electricity and Gas
Provides representative standard load profiles (SLPs) for
electricity and gas published by the German Association of Energy and Water
Industries (BDEW Bundesverband der Energie- und Wasserwirtschaft e.V.)
in a tidy format. The electricity profiles cover the 1999 profiles —
households (H0), commercial (G0–G6), and agriculture (L0–L2) — and the
updated 2025 profiles (H25, G25, L25, P25, S25), which additionally
represent households with photovoltaic systems and battery storage. An
interface generates an electricity load profile over a user-defined date
range. A second interface generates daily gas load profiles using the
BDEW/VKU/GEODE synthetic 'SigLinDe' procedure from daily temperatures and a
customer value ('Kundenwert'). The 1999 data and methodology are described
in VDEW (1999), "Repräsentative VDEW-Lastprofile",
<https://www.bdew.de/media/documents/1999_Repraesentative-VDEW-Lastprofile.pdf>.
The electricity generation algorithm is described in VDEW (2000), "Anwendung
der Repräsentativen VDEW-Lastprofile step-by-step",
<https://www.bdew.de/media/documents/2000131_Anwendung-repraesentativen_Lastprofile-Step-by-step.pdf>.
The 2025 profiles are described in BDEW (2025), "Standardlastprofile
Strom", <https://www.bdew.de/energie/standardlastprofile-strom/>. The gas
procedure is described in BDEW (2025), "Standardlastprofile Gas",
<https://www.bdew.de/energie/standardlastprofile-gas/>.
