Superservicios: Colombian Energy User Characterization for Second Half 2021

A dataset characterizing energy users in Colombia, likely containing 1732 records based on a form identifier. It originates from the Colombian Superintendency of Public Services (SSPD) via the datos.gov.co platform. The data was last updated on the platform in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing the distribution of customer socioeconomic strata (ESTRATO_SECTOR) across different departments (DANE_NOM_DPTO) and populated centers (DANE_NOM_POBLAD).
• Mapping energy infrastructure by correlating transformer codes (CAR_T1732_COD_TRANSFORMADOR) with geographic locations (UBICACION) and connection types (TIPO_DE_CONEXION).
• Studying self-generation capacity by examining autogenerator status (AUTOGENERADOR), installed capacity (CAR_T1732_CAPACIDAD_AUTOGEN), and export status (EXPORTA_ENERGIA).
• Profiling commercial energy providers by aggregating data per company identifier (IDENTIFICADOR_EMPRESA) and marketer (COMERCIALIZADOR).

Strengths

• Includes detailed technical and commercial columns, such as contract capacity (CAR_T1732_CAP_CONTRATO_RESP) and voltage levels (CAR_T1732_NIVEL_TENSION).
• Provides geographic granularity with department, populated center, and location columns.
• Data is structured according to a specific regulatory resolution (SSPD 20212200012515 de 2021).

Limitations

• Row count and total dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
