From the “data availability” statement:

The datasets used in this analysis are partly available on the internet. Weather pattern data up to 2020 are provided by https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.942896. Power system failure datasets reported to NaFIRS are proprietary and cannot be made publicly available by the authors. For more information about NaFIRS, including definitions and reporting requirements for power system failures in the UK, refer to https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/sites/default/files/docs/2020/04/riio-ed1_regulatory_instructions_and_guidance_annex_f_-_interruptions.pdf.

Any other comments?

MATLAB again, and proprietary data for power outages. Looks interesting and the visualisations contain lots of underlying data, but may not be worth all the effort.
