SDG 7 emphasizes the importance of universal access to dependable, cost-effective, and sustainable energy sources. Key areas include enhancing energy efficiency, expanding the use of renewable resources, and diversifying energy portfolios, all while maintaining energy affordability for the population. The specific goals used as evaluation criteria within the assessment framework are listed in provided dataset. Dataset is related to the research paper: Using New Temporal EDAS Approach in Sustainable Energy Mix Evaluation, Jarosław Wa̧tróbski, Aleksandra Ba̧czkiewicz, Jarosław Jankowski, and Wojciech Sałabun, Vietnam Journal of Computer Science, pages 1-24, doi: 10.1142/S2196888825500150

Steps to reproduce
The data is provided in individual XLSX and CSV files for each year. The data was downloaded from https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/data/database Eurostat database -> EU policies -> Sustainable development indicators -> Goal 7 – Affordable and clean energy. Links to each criterion are provided in PDF file named data.pdf. Initially data was collected in the form of 10 XLSX files for each criterion (indicator) included in the SDG 7 framework.
