We propose M-SRPCNN, a fully convolutional generative deep neural network to recover missing historical hourly data from a sensor based on the historic monthly energy consumption. The network performs a reconstruction of the load profile while keeping the overall monthly consumption, which makes it suitable to effectively replace energy apportioning systems. Experiments demonstrate that M-SRPCNN can effectively reconstruct load curves from single month overall values, outperforming traditional apportioning systems.
