Energy Load and Power Forecasting

Energy and environmental sustainability can benefit a lot from advances in data mining and machine learning techniques.However, those advances rely on the availability of relevant datasets required to develop, improve and validate new techniques.Only recently the first datasets were made publicly available for the energy and sustainability research community.In this paper we present a freely available dataset containing power usage and related information from 50 homes.Here we describe our dataset, the hardware and software setups used when collecting the data and how others can access it.We then discuss potential uses of this data in the future of energy ecofeedback and demand side management research.
