1. A method for creating a utility demand forecast model for weather parameters, the method comprising:
- receiving, by one or more processors, a plurality of utility parameter values, wherein each utility parameter value out of the plurality of utility parameter values corresponds to a weather parameter value;
determining, by one or more processors, that a range of weather parameter values lacks a sufficient amount of corresponding utility parameter values out of the plurality of utility parameters;
determining, by one or more processors, a set of utility parameter values that corresponds to the range of weather parameter values based on a portion of the plurality of utility parameter values corresponding to the range of weather parameter values lacking a sufficient amount of corresponding utility parameter values;
creating, by one or more processors, a model which correlates the plurality of utility parameter values and the set of utility parameter values with corresponding weather parameters values; and
providing, by one or more processors, an amount of a utility to one or more structures based on the model.

Abstract
The computer creates a utility demand forecast model for weather parameters by receiving a plurality of utility parameter values, wherein each received utility parameter value corresponds to a weather parameter value. Determining that a range of weather parameter values lacks a sufficient amount of corresponding received utility parameter values. Determining one or more utility parameter values that corresponds to the range of weather parameter values. Creating a model which correlates the received and the determined utility parameter values with the corresponding weather parameters values.

15. A computer system for creating a utility demand forecast model for weather parameters, the computer system comprising:
-
one or more computer processors; one or more computer readable storage media; program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, which when executed, cause the computer processor to; receive, by one or more processors, a plurality of utility parameter values, wherein each utility parameter value out of the plurality of utility parameter values corresponds to a weather parameter value; determine, by one or more processors, that a range of weather parameter values lacks a sufficient amount of corresponding utility parameter values out of the plurality of utility parameters; determine, by one or more processors, a set of utility parameter values that corresponds to the range of weather parameter values based on a portion of the plurality of utility parameter values corresponding to the range of weather parameter values lacking a sufficient amount of corresponding utility parameter values; create, by one or more processors, a model which correlates the plurality of utility parameter values and the set of utility parameter values with corresponding weather parameters values; and provide, by one or more processors, an amount of a utility to one or more structures based on the model. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
