Machine Learning of Commercial and Residential Load Components in the Northwestern United States

Authors Info & Claims
Published:15 June 2019Publication History

ABSTRACT

The impacts of weather attributes on commercial and residential electricity demands and their components in the northwestern United States were examined. Two machine learning methods, regression tree (RT), and random forest (RF), were integrated and compared. Both RT and RF models provide reliable predictions of commercial cooling load. RF models particularly yield higher accuracy with reduced overfitting.
