Energy-TTM

Energy-TTM is a domain-specific Time Series Foundation Model (TSFM) for energy meter data analytics, pretrained on large-scale real-world smart meter data from the EnergyBench corpus. Built upon IBM Research's Tiny Time Mixer (TTM) architecture, it learns transferable representations of electricity consumption patterns across diverse residential and commercial buildings.

The pretrained model is designed for zero-shot and transfer learning across heterogeneous buildings, regions, and operational contexts, while remaining lightweight and computationally efficient. It is optimized for short-term load forecasting, enabling accurate day-ahead energy demand prediction with minimal task-specific adaptation.

Pretraining Dataset

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

👉 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.

Default configuration:

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

Available Checkpoints

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.
