Abstract: An artificial intelligence (AI) based apparatus and method for forecasting energy usage receives a request for providing power usage forecasting information of a first period including a current month with respect to an electronic apparatus of a user, divides a use period of the electronic apparatus into first to third sections, loads, from a memory, power actual-use data of a user or a plurality of users during the use period or a predetermined second period before the current month, calculates a daily forecasting weight given a weight based on weather or holiday information of the first period, and generates the power usage forecasting information based on the power actual-use data.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are an artificial intelligence (AI) based apparatus and method for forecasting energy usage, which are capable of automatically collecting data on monthly power usage to forecast energy usage. The artificial intelligence (AI) based apparatus and method for forecasting energy usage receives a request for providing power usage forecasting information of a first period including a current month with respect to an electronic apparatus of a user, divides a use period of the electronic apparatus into first to third sections, loads, from a memory, power actual-use data of a user or a plurality of users during the use period or a predetermined second period before the current month, calculates a daily forecasting weight given a weight based on weather or holiday information of the first period, and generates the power usage forecasting information based on the power actual-use data.
