This graph represents the daily electricity consumption of one household for one year (N = 365). The star marks the inflection temperature for this household for this year. We note that our true temperature response function includes electricity price, weekend, holiday, day of the week, and month of the year effects. The inflection temperature is the minimum of the quadratic temperature response function between the residuals after controlling for these factors and outdoor temperature.
