Each clustering step includes the calculation of two internal validation metrics which statistically evaluate how well the k-means algorithm was able to create distinct groups of daily profiles, the silhouette coefficient and the sum of square error. The silhouette coefficient score is a measurement of the inter-cluster cohesiveness and intra-cluster separation; a score of 1 is best and -1 is the worst. The coefficient is calculated with the following equation\cite{Rousseeuw:1987wr}:
\begin{equation}
s = \frac{b - a}{\max{(a,b)}}
