This paper discusses time series approaches, often used by Transmission System Operators (TSOs) to forecast system demand, and applies them at an individual dwelling level. In particular, two techniques, Fourier transforms and Gaussian processes were evaluated and used to characterise individual...

In this study, an overview of energy, how Australia is producing electricity, highlighting currently used fossil fuel generation technique’s major share compared with starting renewable energy technique’s minor share of total electricity generated. How electricity transmissionis done,...

Authoritative reports show that building electricity consumption can increase steadily once temperature values within urban regions exceed their rural values. This study first assesses the role of higher temperatures in the variation of Bahrain’s domestic electricity consumption for...

Utilities are currently deploying smart electricity meters in millions of households worldwide to collect fine-grained electricity consumption data. We present an approach to automatically analyzing this data to enable personalized and scalable energy efficiency programs for private households....

This paper aims to investigate the socio-economic, dwelling and appliance related factors that have significant or non-significant effects on domestic electricity consumption. To achieve this aim, a comprehensive literature review of international research investigating these factors was...

Plug-in vehicles powered by renewable energies are a viable way to reduce local and total emissions and could also support a highly efficient grid operation. Indirect control by variable tariffs is one option to link charging or even discharging time with the grid load and the renewable energy...
