Each team must make a submission to be eligible for prizes. Submissions will be made by forking the Green Battery Hack github repo, updating the algorithm, and then pushing to main. These updates will automatically be pulled down by our server and run remotely with the development dataset. The performance of your algorithm will then be displayed on a web server (still under construction).
The primary data source for this competition will be opennem historical data (exact dates TBD). Within this data there will be 4 datasets:
Training Set — feb-2022 to present
Containing 1 year + of historical price, demand and weather data
Development Set — April 21 2023 - April 30 2023
Composition: randomly selected periods throughout feb-2023 to feb-2024
A subset of the training set containing 2 months of historical price data. This will be used for all leaderboard submissions. The start and end dates of the development set will be known publicly.
Hold-Out set — April 21 2024 - April 30 2024
A subset of the training set containing 2 months of historical price data. This will be used for all leaderboard submissions. The start and end dates of the hold-out set will be not known publicly until the pitch night is concluded. The performance of each algorithm on this set will make up 50% of a team’s final earnings.
Live Data
In addition all algorithms will be deployed and made to trade against 10 days of live data between the 22nd and the 30th of April. The performance of each algorithm on this set will make the other 50% of a team’s final earnings.
