description | As we all know, the behavior of stealing electric energy governance is always the difficulty and key point in the management of electric power enterprises. In recent years, as bitcoin’s value continued to climb, the theft of electricity by bitcoin mining user began to appear. In order to solve the power theft problem of bitcoin mining users, we conducted an in-depth study on the power consumption behavior of such users based on the power data analysis technology. This paper analyzes the power consumption characteristics of bitcoin mining users and uses electric data acquire system to monitor power consumption behavior. The paper makes comparative analysis on the massive data such as voltage and power of the electric energy acquisition system, analyzes and calculates the Pearson correlation coefficient between the electricity consumption of each customer and the line loss statistics of the power station by using Pearson correlation algorithm combined with the power loss of the power station, and analyzes the suspected users of stealing electric energy by taking an actual example. Through our research, we found a total of 16 bitcoin miners suspected of stealing electricity. After on-site investigation and evidence collection, we found that 10 of the users did have abnormal power consumption, and the accuracy rate reached 62.50%. Therefore, the economic benefits of this research are very significant. |
