A fun and very useful competition as well.

Congratulations to the winners and good luck to everyone.

here is my solution in simple details:

First, we group the data by date and source, then sum up the Kilowatt * Hr. of each day for each source, finally we perform the division into 5 days feature and label samples.

The model can be divided into two main parts:

- the first part is the parallel neural network models with the two different inputs entering to it

- the second part is the concatenation layer and then the Dense layer for getting output

Here you can find two charts that visualizes these ideas, thank you!

Nice solution. Thanks for sharing. The cross validation for me - very intuitive !

Curious to know, how many samples did you end up with in total?

After aggregating the target variable by date and source, did you try dropping duplicates and retaining just first or last data points?
