This repository contains code and instructions enable you to develop an algorithm that can predict how much energy a building will consume based on building characteristics, weather data for it's location, and more. Work like this can help determine which buildings are using and maybe wasting the most energy, which could be great candidates for retrofitting.

The code tutorial that will explain how to access the challenge dataset and how to get started on developing and presenting your own algorithms to predict building energy consumption.
The dummy dataset used in Building Regression Models.mlx, zipped into a compressed folder. To use this dataset, you must first extract the .CSV file from the folder.
Contains the scoring rubric that will be used by the judges to score your submission.
Explains the challenge and provides some additional resources for the hackathon.
