Abstract: A computer-implemented method for detecting and predicting anomalies in an energy management system is presented. The method includes detecting, in real-time, a first set of outliers for a plurality of energy devices under operation, predicting a second set of outliers for running the plurality of energy devices, analyzing historical energy data of the plurality of energy devices to extract a third set of outliers, receiving feedback, in real-time, from a user regarding each of the first, second, and third sets of outliers, and training the energy management system with the real-time feedback received from the user to automatically optimize a threshold of error detection.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling battery charge levels to maximize savings in a behind the meter energy management system include predicting a demand charge threshold with a power demand management controller based on historical load. A net energy demand is predicted for a current day with a short-term forecaster. A demand threshold maximizes financial savings using the net energy demand using a rolling time horizon optimizer by concurrently optimizing the demand charge savings and demand response rewards. A load reduction capability factor of batteries is determined with a real-time controller corresponding to an amount of energy to fulfill the demand response rewards. The net energy demand is compared with the demand threshold to determine a demand difference. Battery charge levels of the one or more batteries are controlled with the real time controller according to the demand difference and the load reduction capability factor.
