# Event Types Every event that occurs on a sensor or actor within a building can be seen as a [change of a state](https://content.iospress.com/download/journal-of-ambient-intelligence-and-smart-environments/ais242?id=journal-of-ambient-intelligence-and-smart-environments%2Fais242). Every event sent to the Recommender Platform needs to describe for which type of state it is sent. Below you can find a [#list-of-customer-provided-types](#list-of-customer-provided-types "mention")[ ](#list-of-types)the Recommender Platform can receive from your environment. The [#list-of-moost-provided-types](#list-of-moost-provided-types "mention") contains state types of events that are generated by context services that are part of the Recommender Platform. ## List of Customer Provided Types

## List of MOOST Provided Types The Recommender Platform offers multiple context services. These context services generate additional events of state types which can be used within the Recommender Platform without the need to be provided by you. The current context events available on the Recommender Platform are the following.

State Type	Unit	Interval	Device Type	Description
DYNAMIC_TARIFF_LOWEST_PRICE_FORECAST_TOMORROW	currency	Once a day	MOOST	The lowest tariff price of the next day of a building with dynamic pricing. Remark: the currency and tariff plan for the next day has to be applied to the building data.
DYNAMIC_TARIFF_PRICE	currency	Every 30min	MOOST	The current tariff price of a building with dynamic pricing. Remark: the currency and tariff plan for the next day has to be applied to the building data.
DYNAMIC_TARIFF_PRICE_FORECAST_1H	currency	Every 30min	MOOST	The tariff price of next hour of a building with dynamic pricing.
ENERGY_BASE_CONSUMPTION	Wh	Once a day	MOOST	This value is calculated out of the energy consumption data of the last view days.
ENERGY_CONSUMPTION_FORECAST_1H	Wh	Every hour	MOOST	The expected energy consumption of a building in the next hour during 1h
ENERGY_CONSUMPTION_FORECAST_24H	Wh	Every hour	MOOST	The expected energy consumption of a building in the next hour during 1h.
ENERGY_GENERATION_FORECAST_1H	Wh	Every hour	MOOST	The expected energy generation of a building in the next hour.

GRID_ENERGY_CONSUMPTION_ANOMALY_SCORE	Score	Calculated for every incoming GRID_ENERGY_CONSUMPTION event	MOOST	A numerical value indicating the likelihood of an anomaly in grid energy consumption for a given building. This score is calculated using historical energy consumption data and patterns and ranges, with higher scores representing a greater probability of a consumption anomaly.
GRID_POWER_CONSUMPTION_ANOMALY_SCORE	Score	Calculated for every incoming GRID_POWER_CONSUMPTION event	MOOST	A numerical value indicating the likelihood of an anomaly in grid power consumption for a given building. This score is calculated using historical power consumption data and patterns and ranges, with higher scores representing a greater probability of a consumption anomaly.
POWER_CONSUMPTION_BASE_LOAD	W	Once a day	MOOST	The base consumption of the household. This value is calculated out of the power consumption data of the last view days.
POWER_CONSUMPTION_FORECAST_1H	W	Every hour	MOOST	The expected power consumption of a building in the next hour.
POWER_CONSUMPTION_FORECAST_24H	W	Every hour	MOOST	The expected power consumption of a building in 24 hours.
POWER_GENERATION_FORECAST_1H	W	Every hour	MOOST	The expected power generated in the next hour.

IS_LOW_TARIFF_HOURS	[0, 1]	Every 30min	MOOST	Is "1" if given building has currently low tariff. Remark: if building has dynamic pricing, then is is set to "1" if current price is in the lower 25% band.
IS_HIGH_TARIFF_HOURS	[0, 1]	Every 30min	MOOST	Is "1" if given building has currently high tariff. Remark: if building has dynamic pricing, then is is set to "1" if current price is in the upper 25% band.
