In one example, a system can receive an input from a user indicating a target variable to be forecasted over a future time window. The system can then determine independent variables that influence the target variable and generate a set of candidate variables, including combinations of the independent variables. The system can then execute a random forest classifier to identify a subset of candidate variables having a threshold level of influence on the target variable. The system can then construct a machine-learning model configured to receive the identified subset of candidate variables as inputs and generate a forecast of the target variable. After constructing the machine-learning model, the system can train the machine-learning model using historical data and then execute the machine-learning model to generate the forecast.

An apparatus includes a processor to: assign each value of each set of values of an initial supply meter data and of an initial load meter data to one of multiple buckets based on weather conditions and/or time and date; for each bucket, generate upper and lower bounds of power provision and power consumption values, and use the upper and lower bounds to identify outlier values assigned to the bucket; for each set of values within the initial supply meter data and within the initial load meter data, generate a naive model from the non-outlier values, and use interpolation and the naive model to fill in gaps, thereby generating cleansed supply meter data and cleansed load meter data; and store the cleansed supply meter data and cleansed load meter data together as merged meter data for use in making predictions.
