Summary:

In this first module we focus on the Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods used to analyse large quantities of data in order to perform two main tasks: (1) to observe anomalies, trends and errors in variables and, (2) use this AI methods to predict and forecast different variables such as building energy consumption thus preventing abnormal settings or faults in energy production. Machine Learning techniques are a relevant predictions tools for demand-response applications in the context of the smart grid e.g.: to avoid matching of peak loads over small periods.
