Improving Net Energy Metering (NEM) Actual Load Prediction Accuracy using an Adaptive Learning Rate LSTM Model for Residential Use Case

As an effort to promote renewable energy-based power generation, one of Malaysia's initiatives is the net-energy metering (NEM) scheme. One of the shortcomings of residential Photovoltaic (PV) systems under the NEM scheme is that it operates with smart meters only whereby the actual load profil...
