About the source

The World Bank's World Development Indicators (WDI) is the world's most-cited reference for global development data. It compiles officially-recognized international statistics from national accounts, government agencies, and partner organizations (IMF, WHO, FAO, UNESCO, ILO, UN agencies). The WDI covers over 1,400 indicators across 21 topics for 217 economies, with annual updates as new data become available.

Methodology

Data is pulled directly from the World Bank's public API (api.worldbank.org/v2) for every indicator tagged to this topic across all countries in the region. Records with no observed value are dropped. Years are normalized to integers; values are coerced to float64.

Schema

Data quality & caveats

• —Records with null observations are filtered out at ingest.
• —Indicator coverage varies by country and year; not every (indicator × country × year) combination is present.
• —Some countries appear under multiple aggregate groupings in WB; this dataset is filtered to individual sovereign states only.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("electricsheepeurope/europe-worldbank-energy-mining")
df = ds["train"].to_pandas()
print(df.head())

Filter to one country

germany = df[df["country_iso3"] == "DEU"]

Time-series for a single indicator

sample = (df[df["indicator_id"] == "EG.ELC.ACCS.RU.ZS"]
          .sort_values("year"))
sample.plot(x="year", y="value", title="EG.ELC.ACCS.RU.ZS")

Pivot to country × year matrix

matrix = (df[df["indicator_id"] == "EG.ELC.ACCS.RU.ZS"]
          .pivot_table(index="year", columns="country_iso3", values="value"))
print(matrix.tail())
