Short‐term photovoltaic power prediction based on MDCM‐GA‐LSTM model

Abstract

In recent years, photo-voltaic (PV) system has become one of the most potential renewable energy power generation technologies because of its many advantages. Considering the influence of the randomness of PV system on the operation and dispatching of power system, the necessity of a comprehensive forecasting model is increased rapidly. This paper proposes a short-term PV power forecasting method based on MDCM-GA-LSTM model to solve the problem of low accuracy of traditional and single forecasting model. First, the meteorological data are pre-processed based on wavelet denoising algorithm to improve the data quality. Second, a meteorological model is established based on genetic algorithm (GA) to optimize long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network. Finally, the network is trained with the modified data of the meteorological model as the input and the actual power as the output, and the power forecasting model is established. In this study, the forecasting accuracy is evaluated based on mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE). The experimental results demonstrated that the MDCM-GA-LSTM model outperforms the conventional and single model by a difference of about 98.43% of the MAE and 98.97% of the RMSE error.

Application of Gray Wolf Optimization Algorithm in Urban Electricity Load Forecasting Model

“…The long-and short-term memory network is based on RNN and has three gating units, forgetting gate, input gate, and output gate [4]. The LSTM can process long-time sequences effectively and overcome the problem of long-time dependence on the input sequence thanks to the special gating unit and memory unit.…”

Short-term wind power prediction based on DWT-PSO-LSTM

“…The data were downscaled based on a combination of meteorological data and historical power [9] , and a combination of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and LSTM is used to build the model, which demonstrated the superiority of the model with simulations. A prediction model combining CNN and LSTM was established [10] , the data were processed by DWT, and then the original data and the processed data were fed into CNN for optimization, which improved the prediction accuracy.…”
