49 | Electricity load forecasting is crucial for utilities for production | |
50 | planning as well as marketing offers. Recently, the increasing deployment of | |
51 | smart grids infrastructure requires the development of more flexible data | |
52 | driven forecasting methods adapting quite automatically to new data sets. | |
53 | Electricity load forecasting is crucial for utilities for production planning as | |
54 | well as marketing offers. New metering infrastructures as smart meters | |
55 | provide new and potentially massive informations about individual (household, | |
56 | small and medium enterprise) consumption. As an example, in France, | |
57 | ERDF (Electricite Reseau Distribution de France the French manager of | |
58 | the public electricity distribution network) deployed 250000 smart meters, | |
59 | covering a rural and an urban territory and providing half-hourly household | |
60 | energy used each day. ERDF plans to install 35 millions of them over the | |
61 | French territory by the end of 2020 and exploiting such an amount of data | |
62 | is an exciting but challenging task (see \url{http://www.erdf.fr/Linky}). | |
63 | We propose to build clustering tools useful for forecasting the load | |
64 | consumption. The idea is to disaggregate the global signal in such a way that | |
65 | the sum of disaggregated forecasts significantly improves the prediction of the | |
66 | whole global signal. The strategy is in three steps: first we cluster curves | |
67 | defining super-consumers, then we build a hierarchy of partitions within which | |
68 | the best one is finally selected with respect to a disaggregated forecast | |
69 | criterion. The proposed strategy is applied to a dataset of individual | |
70 | consumers from the French electricity provider EDF. A substantial gain | |
71 | of $16$ \% in forecast accuracy comparing to the 1-cluster approach is provided | |
72 | by disaggregation while preserving meaningful classes of consumers. | |

75 | ||
76 | In the context of economic seasonal univariate continuous time series, it is often | |
77 | natural to segment it in time, into consecutive curves, for example days, which | |
78 | are then treated as a discrete time series of functions. In particular, in the | |
79 | electrical context, the shape of the curves exhibits rich information about the | |
80 | calendar day type, the meteorological conditions or the existence of special | |
81 | electricity tariffs. Using the information contained in the shape of the load | |
82 | curves leads to very elegant formulation of functional forecasting. | |
83 | ||
84 | ||
85 | %Electricity load experts naturally look at daily demand data as time functions | |
86 | %called load curves. In a recent paper, \cite{shang2013} uses a functional time | |
87 | %series approach for forecasting short-term electricity demand. This paper is | |
88 | %illustrated by the half-hourly electricity demand from Monday to Sunday in South | |
89 | %Australia. The strategy is also to consider a seasonal univariate time series as | |
90 | %a time series of curves, then to reduce the dimensionality of curves by applying | |
91 | %a functional principal component analysis and finally, following | |
92 | %\cite{shang2011}, the principal component scores are forecasted using a | |
93 | %univariate ARIMA models. In addition, since data points in the daily electricity | |
94 | %demand are sequentially observed, a forecast updating method based on | |
95 | %nonparametric bootstrap approach is proposed to improve the accuracy of point | |
96 | %forecasts. With respect to this strategy, the scheme we propose handles the | |
97 | %forecasting problem in a functional way avoiding the hour by hour processing and | |
98 | %considers a more flexible way to construct the distribution leading to the | |
99 | %prediction interval. | |
100 | ||
101 | The shape of the curves exhibits rich information about the calendar day type, | |
102 | the meteorological conditions or the existence of special electricity tariffs. | |
103 | Using the information contained in the shape of the load curves, \cite{antoniadis2012prevision} proposed a flexible nonparametric function-valued | |
104 | forecast model called KWF (\textit{Kernel + Wavelet + Functional}) well suited | |
105 | to handle nonstationary series. The predictor can be seen as a weighted average | |
106 | of futures of past situations, where the weights increase with the similarity | |
107 | between the past situations and the actual one. In addition, this strategy | |
108 | provides with a simultaneous multiple horizon prediction for a global forecast. | |
109 | ||
110 | However, there is a need for local electricity load forecasting at different levels of the grid. | |
111 | Bottom-up approaches, based on a two stage process combining clustering and forecasting | |
112 | methods, are a promising perspective. First, it | |
113 | consists in building classes in a population such that each class could be | |
114 | sufficiently well forecast but corresponds to different load shapes or reacts | |
115 | differently to exogenous variables like temperature or prices (see e.g. | |
116 | \cite{labeeuw} in the context of demand response). The second stage consists in | |
117 | aggregating forecasts to forecast the total or any subtotal of the population | |
118 | consumption. For example, identify and forecast the consumption of a | |
119 | sub-population reactive to an incentive is an important need to optimize a | |
120 | demand response program. | |
121 | ||
122 | \section{Past work} | |
123 | ||
124 | Few papers consider the problem of clustering individual consumption for | |
125 | forecasting (e.g. \cite{iwafune2014short, Alzate, carevic2010applications, MisitiElec}). Recently, \cite{energycon} proposed to build clustering tools useful for the two tasks simultaneously: clustering individual customers and forecasting the load consumption. The idea is to disaggregate the global signal in such a way that the sum of disaggregated forecasts significantly improves the prediction of the whole global signal. The general strategy is in three steps: first we cluster individual curves defining super-consumers, then we built a hierarchy of partitions within which a best one is finally selected with respect to a disaggregated forecast criterion. The predictions are made with the KWF model which allows one to use it as a off-the-shelve tool. | |
126 | ||
127 | While this work has ended with an the specification of an algorithm, a current need is a real upscaling proof. A first step on this direction was done in | |
128 | \cite{auder2014}. | |

135 | \section{Aims} | |
136 | ||
137 | The method proposed in \cite{energycon} has been successfully tested on a small data set of EDF clients. With the current development of smart meters in France the available volume of individual data is increasing day after day. Then, there is a genuine need of measuring the upscale skills of the existent methods. | |
138 | ||
139 | This projet's aim is twofold. First, we will evaluate the upscaling capacity of the strategy developed in \cite{energycon} to cope with the upgrowing volume of data. Second, we will study how to adapt the KWF prediction method to take into account an exogeneous variable. In our particular problem the exogeneous variables can be any meteorological measurement that affects the load demand and is available at the moment of the prediction. | |

148 | ||
149 | \subsection{Methods} | |
150 | \paragraph{Clustering analysis.} In general, clustering methods look for groups of individuals on data in such a way that those belonging to the same group are more similar than those from other groups. Many methods exists to cluster data: | |
151 | hierarchical, center-based, probabilistic, etc. Almost all of them depends heavily | |
152 | on the choice of a similarity measure between individuals. For this challenge we plan | |
153 | to compare individuals in terms of their wavelet spectrum signature. Thanks to this strategy, non | |
154 | stationary signals may be fairly compared. Moreover, the signals need not to be | |
155 | measured on the same temporal grid. However, in order to detect relevant results | |
156 | the wavelet signatures should be corrected by exogenous information (e.g. the one | |
157 | provided as client characteristics). | |
158 | ||
159 | \paragraph{Wavelet analysis.} Since the objects to analyze (load curves) can be viewed | |
160 | as functions of time, functional data analysis techniques are one possible choice to | |
161 | represent these objects. From a stochastic point of view the functions are realizations | |
162 | of a non stationary random process. Wavelet transform can be used to extract | |
163 | relevant information about the functions both on time and frequency. With an | |
164 | appropriate representation of the objects, it is then possible to construct | |
165 | a meaningful distance between load curves. | |
166 | ||
167 | \paragraph{Forecasting with KWF} | |
168 | The basic idea of nonparametric forecasting is that similar cases in the past | |
169 | have similar future consequences. For example the electricity consumption is | |
170 | divided into blocks of one day size. Then, using a dissimilarity measure, the | |
171 | blocks similar to the last observed block are searched in the past and a vector | |
172 | of weights is built. Finally, the forecast of the next day is obtained by a | |
173 | weighted average of the most similar future days using previous vector of | |
174 | weights. From the statistical point of view, the model is an estimate of the | |
175 | regression function using the kernel method, of the last block against all the | |
176 | blocks in the past. In \cite{antoniadis2006functional} this basic model is | |
177 | extended to the case of stationary functional random variables. But in the | |
178 | context of electrical power demand, the hypothesis of stationarity generally | |
179 | fails: an evolving mean level and the existence of groups that may be seen as | |
180 | classes of stationarity are to be considered. Corrections to take into | |
181 | account these two main nonstationary features are considered in | |
182 | \cite{antoniadis2012prevision} defining a flexible nonparametric function-valued | |
183 | forecast model called KWF (\textit{Kernel + Wavelet + Functional}) well suited | |
184 | to handle nonstationary series. The predictor can be seen as a weighted average | |
185 | of futures of past situations, where the weights increase with the similarity | |
186 | between the past situations and the actual one. Again the similarity is defined | |
187 | thanks to the wavelet decompositions of the two segments. | |
188 | ||
189 | ||
190 | \subsection{Technology} % to be employed (hardware y software)} | |
191 | ||
192 | ||
193 | The volume of data to deal for this projet can be handled with standard | |
194 | but recent tools for data analysis. | |
195 | The specific software tools will be statistical programming language like \texttt{R} with some popular | |
196 | libraries (\texttt{data.table}, \texttt{dplyr}) and specific packages to cope with wavelet analysis. All these elements are open source. | |
197 | ||
198 | When the computational burden will grow, we have direct access to larger computation capacities. | |
199 | ||
200 | All the tools developed on the project will be made available as open source software licences. | |
