What it contains
Curated metadata catalogue of UK energy research datasets and publications, including many DESNZ/BEIS-funded project outputs that never reached data.gov.uk.
When you need it
Not yet mapped to a project stage. The stage axis is a first pass against a draft matrix, and a record with no stage means nobody has placed it rather than that it is useful at none.
