Machine Learning for Smart Meter Data

From raw meter signal to business decision: disaggregation, forecasting, and grid-edge value, built to be run, not just read.

By Anthony Faustine    

Meter Signal

Disaggregation

Forecasting

Grid-Edge Value

Part 1 · Foundations

Smart meter data fundamentals, signal processing, and the data pipelines every later chapter builds on.

  • 01Reading a meter signalSoon
Part 2 · Disaggregation

Non-intrusive load monitoring: from the aggregate signal to appliance-level insight.

Part 3 · Forecasting

Probabilistic load and PV forecasting, built on Twiga: point forecasts and calibrated uncertainty.

  • 03Forecasting with uncertaintySoon
Part 4 · Grid-Edge Value

Clustering, anomaly and theft detection, and LV hosting-capacity questions as DER growth reshapes the grid.

  • 04Value at the grid edgeSoon
