Scalable Hybrid Classification-Regression Solution for High-Frequency Nonintrusive Load Monitoring (2208.10638v1)

Published 22 Aug 2022 in cs.LG, cs.SY, and eess.SY

Abstract: Residential buildings with the ability to monitor and control their net-load (sum of load and generation) can provide valuable flexibility to power grid operators. We present a novel multiclass nonintrusive load monitoring (NILM) approach that enables effective net-load monitoring capabilities at high-frequency with minimal additional equipment and cost. The proposed machine learning based solution provides accurate multiclass state predictions while operating at a faster timescale (able to provide a prediction for each 60-Hz ac cycle used in US power grid) without relying on event-detection techniques. We also introduce an innovative hybrid classification-regression method that allows for the prediction of not only load on/off states via classification but also individual load operating power levels via regression. A test bed with eight residential appliances is used for validating the NILM approach. Results show that the overall method has high accuracy and, good scaling and generalization properties. Furthermore, the method is shown to have sufficient response time (within 160ms, corresponding to 10 ac cycles) to support building grid-interactive control at fast timescales relevant to the provision of grid frequency support services.
