Abstract Power load forecasting load forecasting is a core task in power system scheduling, operation, and planning. To enhance forecasting performance, this paper proposes a dual-input deep learning model that integrates Convolutional Neural Networks, Gated Recurrent Units, and a self-attention mechanism. Based on standardized data cleaning and normalization, the method performs convolutional feature extraction and recurrent modeling on load and meteorological time series separately. The self-attention mechanism is then applied to assign weights to key time steps, after which the two feature streams are flattened and concatenated. Finally, a fully connected layer is used to generate More >

Abstract Since the existing prediction methods have encountered difficulties in processing the multiple influencing factors in short-term power load forecasting, we propose a bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) neural network model based on the temporal pattern attention (TPA) mechanism. Firstly, based on the grey relational analysis, datasets similar to forecast day are obtained. Secondly, the bidirectional LSTM layer models the data of the historical load, temperature, humidity, and date-type and extracts complex relationships between data from the hidden row vectors obtained by the BiLSTM network, so that the influencing factors (with different characteristics) can select relevant… More >

Abstract To solve the medium and long term power load forecasting problem, the combination forecasting method is further expanded and a weighted combination forecasting model for power load is put forward. This model is divided into two stages which are forecasting model selection and weighted combination forecasting. Based on Markov chain conversion and cloud model, the forecasting model selection is implanted and several outstanding models are selected for the combination forecasting. For the weighted combination forecasting, a fuzzy scale joint evaluation method is proposed to determine the weight of selected forecasting model. The percentage error and More >
