Short summary
The China New-type Power Systems Meteorological (CNPS-Met) dataset covers mainland China with a daily resolution and a 25 km grid. It includes eight meteorological variables and eleven high-impact weather events related to power generation, grid transmission, and electricity demand. CNPS-Met outperforms other existing datasets in accuracy for most meteorological variables. We also quantified the frequency hotspots and intensity extremes of high-impact weather events.
