Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: Data collected by sensors in the advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) can be used for a multitude of applications offering better control, service of the electrical network. One major application is Short Term Load Forecasting (STLF) which helps in better managing the near future energy production based on predicted consumption. Hover, the fine-grained data collected can be used to infer sensitive information about the customers' lifestyle, which calls for attack-resistant Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) to protect these data. In this study  propose a methodology which can be used to enhance an AMI application with the help of data that undergoes PETs, to evaluate the effect of this enhancement on the application's utility.  apply this methodology on the STLF application,  analyze the privacy concerns raised by the different types of information contributing to it. This is follod by an exploratory study focused on the effects of differentially-private aggregation on STLF methods.  show that the noise introduced, in the case of a bounded sensitivity, has a small effect on the forecast accuracy. These results are a step forward towards early adoption of PETs by energy companies, also by integration in lor-tier-SCADA systems that manage microgrids with energy production capabilities. This enables using the most of what AMI data has to offer while enhancing customers' privacy.
