ABSTRACT = {The accuracy of photovoltaic (PV) power prediction is significantly influenced by meteorological and environmental factors. To enhance ultra-short-term forecasting precision, this paper proposes an interpretable feedback prediction method based on a parallel dual-stream Temporal Convolutional Network-Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (TCN-BiLSTM) architecture incorporating a spatiotemporal attention mechanism. Firstly, during data preprocessing, the optimal historical time window is determined through autocorrelation analysis while highly correlated features are selected as model inputs using Pearson correlation coefficients. Subsequently, a parallel dual-stream TCN-BiLSTM model is constructed where the TCN branch extracts localized transient features and the BiLSTM branch captures long-term periodic patterns, with spatiotemporal attention dynamically weighting spatiotemporal dependencies. Finally, Shapley Additive explanations (SHAP) additive analysis quantifies feature contribution rates and provides optimization feedback to the model. Validation using operational data from a PV power station in Northeast China demonstrates that compared to conventional deep learning models, the proposed method achieves a 17.6% reduction in root mean square error (RMSE), a 5.4% decrease in training time consumption, and a 4.78% improvement in continuous ranked probability score (CRPS), exhibiting significant advantages in both prediction accuracy and generalization capability. This approach enhances the application effectiveness of ultra-short-term PV power forecasting while simultaneously improving prediction accuracy and computational efficiency.},
