Ideas of what you could do with this dataset:

  • Split the last year into a test set- can you build a model to predict energy consumption?
  • Find trends in energy consumption around hours of the day, holidays, or long term trends?
  • Understand how daily trends change depending of the time of year. Summer trends are very different than winter trends.
