This article presentsa novel approach for hybrid ensemble learning that is based on rigorous requirements engineering concepts.The approach finds significant parameters influencing forecasting accuracy by evaluating real-time Modern-EraRetrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA2) data from several European Wind farms usingin-depth stakeholder research and requirements elicitation. Ensemble learning is used to develop a robust model,while a temporal convolutional network handles time-series complexities and data gaps. The ensemble-temporalneural network is enhanced by providing different input parameters including training layers, hidden and dropoutlayers along with activation and loss functions. The proposed framework is further analyzed by comparing stateof-the-art forecasting models in terms of Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE),respectively. The energy efficiency performance indicators showed that the proposed model demonstrates errorreduction percentages of approximately 16.67%, 28.57%, and 81.92% for MAE, and 38.46%, 17.65%, and 90.78%for RMSE for MERRAWind farms 1, 2, and 3, respectively, compared to other existingmethods. These quantitativeresults show the effectiveness of our proposed model with MAE values ranging from 0.0010 to 0.0156 and RMSEvalues ranging from 0.0014 to 0.0174. This work highlights the effectiveness of requirements engineering in windpower forecasting, leading to enhanced forecast accuracy and grid stability, ultimately paving the way for moresustainable energy solutions.展开更多

A rolling generation dispatch model based on ultra-short-term wind power forecast was proposed. In generation dispatch process, the model rolling correct not only the conventional units power output but also the power from wind farm, simultaneously. Second order Markov chain model was utilized to modify wind power prediction error state (WPPES) and update forecast results of wind power over the remaining dispatch periods. The prime-dual affine scaling interior point method was used to solve the proposed model that taken into account the constraints of multi-periods power balance, unit output adjustment, up spinning reserve and down spinning reserve.展开更多

To take full advantage of the environmental benefits of wind energy, wind power forecasting has to be studied to overcome the troubles brought by the variable nature of wind. Power forecasting for regional wind farm groups is the problem that many power system operators care about. The high-dimensional feature sets with redundant information are frequently encountered when dealing with this problem. In this paper, two kinds of feature set construction methods are proposed which can achieve the proper feature set either by selecting the subsets or by transforming the original variables with specific combinations. The former method selects the subset according to the criterion of minimal-redundancy-maximal-relevance (mRMR), while the latter does so based on the method of principal component analysis (PCA). A locally weighted learning method is also proposed to utilize the processed feature set to produce the power forecast results. The proposed model is simple and easy to use with parameters optimized automatically. Finally, a case study of 28 wind farms in East China is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

Previous research works have generally described the uncertainty of wind power forecast errors(WPFEs) based on normal distribution or other standard distribution models, which only characterize the aleatory uncertainty. In fact, epistemic uncertainty in WPFE modeling due to limited data and knowledge should also be addressed. This paper proposes a multi-source information fusion method(MSIFM) to quantify WPFEs when considering both aleatory and epistemic uncertainties. An extended focal element(EFE) selection method based on the adequacy of historical data is developed to consider the characteristics of WPFEs. Two supplementary expert information sources are modeled to improve the accuracy in the case of insufficient historical data. An operation reliability evaluation technique is also developed considering the proposed WPFE model. Finally,a double-layer Monte Carlo simulation method is introduced to generate a time-series output of the wind power. The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed MSIFM are demonstrated through simulation results.展开更多

In this study, the GARCH type models are employed to explore the asymmetric features of wind power time series and improved forecasting precision. Benchmark Symmetric Curve (BSC) and Asymmetric Curve Index (ACI) are proposed as new asymmetric volatility analytical tool, and several generalized applications are presented. In the case study, the utility of the GARCH-type models in depicting time-varying volatility of wind power time series is demonstrated with the asymmetry effect, verified by the asymmetric parameter estimation. With benefit of the enhanced News Impact Curve (NIC) analysis, the responses in volatility to the magnitude and the sign of shocks are emphasized. The results are all confirmed to be consistent despite varied model specifications. The case study verifies that the models considering the asymmetric effect of volatility benefit the wind power forecasting performance.展开更多

However, deep learning-based wind power forecasting studies have not investigated two aspects. In the first stage, different learning structures considering multiple inputs and multiple outputs have not been discussed. In the second stage, the model extrapolation issue has not been investigated. Therefore, we develop four deep neural networks for the first stage to learn data features considering the input-and-output structure. We then explore the model extrapolation issue in the second stage using different modeling methods. Considering the overfitting issue, we propose a new moving window-based algorithm using a validation set in the first stage to update the training data in both stages with two different moving window processes. Experiments were conducted at three wind farms, and the results demonstrate that the model with single-input–multiple-output structure obtains better forecasting accuracy compared to existing models. In addition, the ridge regression method results in a better ensemble model that can further improve forecasting accuracy compared to existing machine learning methods. Finally, the proposed two-stage forecasting algorithm can generate more accurate and stable results than existing algorithms.展开更多

A novel short term wind power forecasting method based on outlier smooth transition autoregressive(OSTAR) structure is advanced, then, combined with the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity(GARCH) model, the OSTAR-GARCH model is proposed for wind power forecasting. The proposed model is further generalized to be with fat-tail distribution.Consequently, the mechanisms of regimes against different magnitude of shocks are investigated owing to the outlier effect parameters in the proposed models. Furthermore, the outlier effect is depicted by news impact curve(NIC) and a novel proposed regime switching index(RSI). Case studies based on practical data validate the feasibility of the proposed wind power forecasting method. From the forecast performance comparison of the OSTAR-GARCH models, the OSTAR-GARCH model with fat-tail distribution proves to be promising for wind power forecasting.展开更多

A statistical combination of the individual forecasts from the various ANNs of the super-ensemble is used to construct the best deterministic forecast, as well as the prediction uncertainty interval associated with this forecast. The bootstrapped neural-network methodology is validated using measured wind speed and power data acquired from a wind turbine in an operational wind farm located in northern China.展开更多

Both load forecasting and weather forecasting are used for collecting predicting data which are required for optimizing the performance of the grid. The stability of each power systems on the grid highly affected by load varying, and with the presence of the wind power systems on the grid, the grid will be more exposed to lowering its performance and increase the instability to other power systems on the gird. This is because of the intermittence behavior of the generated power from wind turbines as they depend on the wind speed which is varying all the time. However, with a good prediction of the wind speed, a close to the actual power of the wind can be determined. Furthermore, with knowing the load characteristics in advance, the new load curve can be determined after being subtracted from the wind power. Thus, with having the knowledge of the new load curve, and data that collected from SACADA system of the status of all power plants, the power optimization, load distribution and redistribution of the power flows between power plants can be successfully achieved. That is, the improvement of performance, more reliable, and more stable power grid.展开更多

An extended focal element(EFE) selection method based on the adequacy of historical data is developed to consider the characteristics of WPFEs. Two supplementary expert information sources are modeled to improve the accuracy in the case of insufficient historical data. An operation reliability evaluation technique is also developed considering the proposed WPFE model. Finally,a double-layer Monte Carlo simulation method is introduced to generate a time-series output of the wind power. The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed MSIFM are demonstrated through simulation results.

文摘Wind power forecasting is of great significance to the safety, reliability and stability of power grid. In this study, the GARCH type models are employed to explore the asymmetric features of wind power time series and improved forecasting precision. Benchmark Symmetric Curve (BSC) and Asymmetric Curve Index (ACI) are proposed as new asymmetric volatility analytical tool, and several generalized applications are presented. In the case study, the utility of the GARCH-type models in depicting time-varying volatility of wind power time series is demonstrated with the asymmetry effect, verified by the asymmetric parameter estimation. With benefit of the enhanced News Impact Curve (NIC) analysis, the responses in volatility to the magnitude and the sign of shocks are emphasized. The results are all confirmed to be consistent despite varied model specifications. The case study verifies that the models considering the asymmetric effect of volatility benefit the wind power forecasting performance.

文摘Wind energy has been widely utilized to alleviate the shortage of fossil resources.When wind power is integrated into the power grid on a large scale,the power grid’s stability is severely harmed due to the fluctuating and intermittent properties of wind speed.Accurate wind power forecasts help to formulate good operational strategies for wind farms.A short-term wind power forecasting method based on new hybrid model is proposed to increase the accuracy of wind power forecast.Firstly,wind power time series are separated using the complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise method to obtain multiple components,which are then predicted using a support vector regression machine model optimized through using the grid search and cross validation(GridSearchCV)algorithm.Secondly,a residual modification model based on temporal convolutional network is constructed,and variables with high correlation are selected as the input features of the model to predict the residuals of wind power.Finally,the prediction accuracy of the proposed method is compared to other models using the actual wind power data of the wind farm to demonstrate the validity of the described method,and the results reveal that the proposed method has better prediction performance.

文摘Two-stage ensemble-based forecasting methods have been studied extensively in the wind power forecasting field. However, deep learning-based wind power forecasting studies have not investigated two aspects. In the first stage, different learning structures considering multiple inputs and multiple outputs have not been discussed. In the second stage, the model extrapolation issue has not been investigated. Therefore, we develop four deep neural networks for the first stage to learn data features considering the input-and-output structure. We then explore the model extrapolation issue in the second stage using different modeling methods. Considering the overfitting issue, we propose a new moving window-based algorithm using a validation set in the first stage to update the training data in both stages with two different moving window processes. Experiments were conducted at three wind farms, and the results demonstrate that the model with single-input–multiple-output structure obtains better forecasting accuracy compared to existing models. In addition, the ridge regression method results in a better ensemble model that can further improve forecasting accuracy compared to existing machine learning methods. Finally, the proposed two-stage forecasting algorithm can generate more accurate and stable results than existing algorithms.

文摘Due to the uncertainty of the accuracy of wind power forecasting,wind turbines cannot be accurately equated with dispatchable units in the preparation of a dayahead dispatching plan for power grid.A robust optimization model for the uncertainty of wind power forecasting with a given confidence level is established.Based on the forecasting value of wind power and the divergence function of forecasting error,a robust evaluation method for the availability of wind power forecasting during given load peaks is established.A simulation example is established based on a power system in Northeast China and an IEEE 39-node model.The availability estimation parameters are used to calculate the equivalent value of wind power of the conventional unit to participate in the dayahead dispatching plan.The simulation results show that the model can effectively handle the challenge of uncertainty of wind power forecasting,and enhance the consumption of wind power for the power system.

文摘The impacts of outlying shocks on wind power time series are explored by considering the outlier effect in the volatility of wind power time series. A novel short term wind power forecasting method based on outlier smooth transition autoregressive(OSTAR) structure is advanced, then, combined with the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity(GARCH) model, the OSTAR-GARCH model is proposed for wind power forecasting. The proposed model is further generalized to be with fat-tail distribution.Consequently, the mechanisms of regimes against different magnitude of shocks are investigated owing to the outlier effect parameters in the proposed models. Furthermore, the outlier effect is depicted by news impact curve(NIC) and a novel proposed regime switching index(RSI). Case studies based on practical data validate the feasibility of the proposed wind power forecasting method. From the forecast performance comparison of the OSTAR-GARCH models, the OSTAR-GARCH model with fat-tail distribution proves to be promising for wind power forecasting.
文摘The bootstrap resampling method is applied to an ensemble artificial neural network (ANN) approach (which combines machine learning with physical data obtained from a numerical weather prediction model) to provide a multi-ANN model super-ensemble for application to multi-step-ahead forecasting of wind speed and of the associated power generated from a wind turbine. A statistical combination of the individual forecasts from the various ANNs of the super-ensemble is used to construct the best deterministic forecast, as well as the prediction uncertainty interval associated with this forecast. The bootstrapped neural-network methodology is validated using measured wind speed and power data acquired from a wind turbine in an operational wind farm located in northern China.
文摘This paper describes the performance, generated power flow distribution and redistribution for each power plant on the grid based on adapting load and weather forecasting data. Both load forecasting and weather forecasting are used for collecting predicting data which are required for optimizing the performance of the grid. The stability of each power systems on the grid highly affected by load varying, and with the presence of the wind power systems on the grid, the grid will be more exposed to lowering its performance and increase the instability to other power systems on the gird. This is because of the intermittence behavior of the generated power from wind turbines as they depend on the wind speed which is varying all the time. However, with a good prediction of the wind speed, a close to the actual power of the wind can be determined. Furthermore, with knowing the load characteristics in advance, the new load curve can be determined after being subtracted from the wind power. Thus, with having the knowledge of the new load curve, and data that collected from SACADA system of the status of all power plants, the power optimization, load distribution and redistribution of the power flows between power plants can be successfully achieved. That is, the improvement of performance, more reliable, and more stable power grid.
