AN OPTIMIZED VARIANT OF MACHINE LEARNING ALGORITHM FOR DATA-DRIVEN ELECTRICAL ENERGY EFFICIENCY MANAGEMENT (D2EEM)

Sep 17, 2026

Uploaded by Levi

Electrical energy is globally demanded yet critically limited in meeting rising consumption. The study focuses on data-driven electrical energy efficiency management using artificial intelligence, with university campuses selected as the case study. The work proposes a new optimized variant of machine learning algorithms and trains and tests it on reference datasets for IIT, India, provided by Smart Energy Informatics Lab. Performance is verified on another campus using a Pakistan dataset, with comparison, optimization, and evaluation steps to improve forecast load accuracy.
