Abstract: Power consumption forecasting plays a key role in the efficient operation of a building energy management system to assess energy demands of building, and at the same time, help electrical utilities in planning their supply operations. However, no state-of-the-arts are available for forecasting medium-term or long-term power consumption of the buildings.

The system is configured to pre-process to deal with outliers/missing values, followed by synchronization of smart meter data with other sensory data. An energy-temperature correlation is calculated to estimate an energy drift using historical power consumptions. Further, in feature derivation stage, additional features necessary for the forecast are derived. The system is to be employed for modeling the building load consumption that depends on the time horizon of forecasting and the granularity of the data.

Abstract: Load disaggregation is useful for both the consumers and producers of energy. The present-day supervised learning models for load disaggregation necessitate the learning of models for every appliance load of interest, which incurs high computational costs. Embodiments of the present disclosure implement a Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) based source-separation model with application to load disaggregation of appliances of interest. Representations of appliance of interest are learnt, between the power aggregate data and the appliance signatures, to output the mapping of data representations on the appliance signatures, for load disaggregation. Discriminative ability for each load/appliance of interest is achieved by adding the free energies of softmax layers of the RBM on other loads/appliance, as a discriminating gradient to the approximate gradients obtained on the load under consideration.
