• Abstract: Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM), which usually utilizes machine learning methods and is effective in disaggregating smart meter readings from the household-level into appliance-level consumption, can help analyze electricity consumption behaviours of users and enable practical smart energy and smart grid applications. Recent studies have proposed many novel NILM frameworks based on federated deep learning (FL). However, there lacks comprehensive research exploring the utility optimization schemes and the privacy-preserving schemes in different FL-based NILM application scenarios. In this paper, we make the first attempt to conduct FL-based NILM focusing on both the utility optimization and the privacy-preserving by developing a distributed and privacy-preserving NILM (DP2-NILM) framework and carrying out comparative experiments on practical NILM scenarios based on real-world smart meter datasets. Specifically, two alternative federated learning strategies are examined in the utility optimization schemes, i.e., the FedAvg and the FedProx. Moreover, different levels of privacy guarantees, i.e., the local differential privacy federated learning and the global differential privacy federated learning are provided in the DP2-NILM. Extensive comparison experiments are conducted on three real-world datasets to evaluate the proposed framework.

  Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) decomposes the total load reading into appliance-level load signals. Deep learning-based methods have been developed to accomplish NILM, and the training of deep neural networks (DNN) requires massive load data containing different types of appliances. For local data owners with inadequate load data but expect to accomplish a promising model performance, the conduction of effective NILM co-modelling is increasingly significant. To eliminate the potential risks, a novel NILM method named Fed-NILM ap-plying Federated Learning (FL) is proposed in this paper.
