2.2.4. Hourly Analysis

In this part, we will process the output from the load profile generators as one minute resolution and create a time series with an hourly resolution. The objective is to show the hourly characteristics of electricity consumption on the hourly average load profiles in the selected year and the hourly average of the seasonal load profiles. Hence, the average load profiles model is proposed as follows in Equation (8):

$$
\widetilde{h}\_{\rm nl} = \frac{1}{d} \sum\_{i=1}^{d} x\_i \tag{8}
$$

where *hn* is the hourly average. *n* is the number of hours which is in the range of 0 to 23. *d* is the number of days in a year, which is in the range of 1 to 365 for the selected year 2015. *xi* is the data *i*-th. To create the hourly average of the seasonal load profiles, we replace *d* with the number of the days in each season.
