In this study, we utilize the cross and partial correlation analyses in order to investigate the dependence of power energy consumption on the temperature. To this end, we use a time series data that consists of three attributes : an hourly measured electric power consumption, temperature, and humidity. We, in particular, divide the yearly data into monthly base, and estimate the cross correlation coefficients between all possible pairs of attributes for each monthly based data. We found that temperature and power consumption are negatively correlated in the winter; positively correlated in the summer. A similar trend was found between humid and power consumption. This implies that when temperature or humidity is relatively high or low, the power consumption increases due to the cooling and heating system at work. In contrast, the correlation between temperature and humid behaves differently from those between temperature and power consumption. These results can be used to effectively manage the power system.
