A SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ENERGY DISAGGREGATION USING NONINTRUSIVE LOAD MONITORING

摘要

The invention relates to a method of energy disaggregation using non-intrusive load monitoring in a premises. In one embodiment, this is accomplished by retrieving one or more of raw energy data in a sequence and send to a server for every 30 second duration over a network, the raw energy data including one or more of electrical and non-electrical parameters. Analyzing the parameters at the server to detect specific patterns or signatures and to map to a particular class of appliance and their events with the corresponding time stamp of occurrence. Classifying each unique event signature to a particular class of appliance, and the activity of the event is further categorized as a turn on or turn off event. Analyzing all the detected appliances in real-time to calculate the contribution of each appliance to the aggregate power and storing the power consumption values of the premises in a database.
