Abstract

The COVID-19 epidemic has led to devastating consequences worldwide due to strict social distancing measures, travel bans, city lockdowns, and other activity restrictions. Numerous lessons have been accumulated by various industries or sectors in the process of coping with COVID-19. In our paper, the actual electricity consumption of 1.145 million enterprises in a province of China is investigated in the normal period, the breakout period, and the recovery period. An artificial intelligence based enterprise profiling model is established to characterize power consumption profile geographically, temporally, and industrially. The recovery rate of enterprise power consumption is proposed as a key indicator representing the status of production resumption. Under lockdown measures, enterprise in different regions or sectors exhibits diversified responses in power consumption, the unsupervised learning model and the correlated coefficient extract the abstract characteristics and labels from various enterprise power profile. Ultimately, enterprises with similar electricity consumption characteristics are grouped and labeled to provide customized power services. Accurate enterprise profiling can effectively aid in facing with the challenges of insufficient orders, tight capital chains, and rising costs caused by the epidemic.
