EnergyFM: Pretrained Models for Energy Meter Data Analytics

EnergyFM is a family of domain-specific Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) pretrained on large-scale real-world smart meter data for energy forecasting, anomaly detection, and classification.

EnergyFM is designed to provide strong zero-shot and transfer learning performance across heterogeneous buildings, regions, and operational contexts, while remaining lightweight and computationally efficient.

Energy-TTM adapts IBM’s Tiny Time Mixers (TTM) architecture to the energy domain, optimized for short-term load forecasting.


Pretraining Dataset

EnergyFM is pretrained on EnergyBench, a large-scale real-world smart meter dataset available on Hugging Face:

πŸ‘‰ https://huggingface.co/datasets/ai-iot/EnergyBench

The dataset consists of:

  • 76,217 residential and commercial buildings
  • 1.26 billion hourly electricity consumption readings
  • Multiple countries and climate zones
  • Diverse building types and operational patterns

The scale and diversity of EnergyBench enable EnergyFM to learn daily, weekly, and seasonal consumption patterns and to generalize robustly to unseen buildings and regions.

Models

Energy-TTM

Energy-TTM is adapted from the Tiny Time Mixers (TTM) architecture and is designed for short-term load forecasting.

Default configuration:

  • Context length: 168 hours
  • Prediction horizon: 24 hours

Available Checkpoints

Model Variant Context Horizon Domain
Energy-TTM-168-24-comm 168 24 Commercial
Energy-TTM-512-96-comm 512 96 Commercial
Energy-TTM-168-24-res 168 24 Residential
Energy-TTM-512-96-res 512 96 Residential

Supported Tasks

Load Forecasting

Energy-TTM supports short-term electricity load forecasting under both zero-shot and fine-tuning regimes. It demonstrates strong generalization across residential and commercial buildings and outperforms traditional machine learning baselines and generic TSFMs in out-of-distribution settings.
