1,911 rows - 1 Africa country/area - 2017-2026 - source table - Engineered by Electric Sheep Africa

TL;DR

This dataset contains 1,911 rows from MDPA, covering List of Regulated Machinery Registered With the Energy Eff. It is published as ML-ready Parquet with consistent Hugging Face metadata, source provenance, and analysis-friendly loading examples.

What This Dataset Measures

Energy datasets help analysts study supply, demand, prices, generation, access, and the infrastructure behind economic activity.

Source-provided context: The dataset provides information on household electrical appliance models (Regulated Machinery) which have been registered with the EEMO for sale in Mauritius. These should bear an Energy Label as defined Energy Efficiency (Labelling of Regulated Machinery) (Amendment) Regulations 2017.

How To Read This Dataset

• One row means: one source record from the original tabular resource, with Electric Sheep Africa provenance columns added where available.
• Primary geography column: country_iso3.
• Best time column: not detected.
• Time coverage basis: source metadata.
• Recommended join keys: country_iso3 where available plus source-specific keys.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-mauritius-list-of-regulated-machinery-registered-with-the-energy-eff-efb939ae")
df = ds["train"].to_pandas()
print(df.head())

Inspect Columns

print(df.info())
print(df.head())

Filter By Geography

if "country_iso3" in df.columns:
    sample = df[df["country_iso3"] == "MU"]

Time-Series Pattern

if "value" in df.columns and "year" in df.columns:
    trend = df.sort_values("year")

Pivot For Analysis

if {"indicator_id", "year", "value"}.issubset(df.columns):
    matrix = df.pivot_table(index="year", columns="indicator_id", values="value")
    print(matrix.tail())

Data Quality Notes

• No canonical year/date column was detected in the packaged table; use source metadata and domain context for temporal interpretation.
• Missing values are preserved rather than silently imputed.
• Column names are standardized for machine use; source meanings are preserved where known.
• Always confirm source methodology, units, and collection definitions before policy, production, or redistribution-sensitive use.
