Abstract With the increasing penetration of wind power into modern power systems, accurate forecast models play a crucial role in large-scale wind power consumption and power system stability. To improve the accuracy and reliability of ultrashort-term wind power prediction, a novel deterministic prediction model and uncertainty quantification with interval estimation were proposed in this study. In consideration of the dynamic characteristics of a generator and conditional dependence, the generator rotor speed and pitch angle were regarded as the indicators of the dynamic characteristics of the generator, and light gradient boosting machine (LGBM) with a Bayesian optimization method was explored to build the deterministic prediction model. Considering the conditional dependence between output power and forecast error, A fuzzy C-means clustering method was used to cluster forecast errors into different clusters, and the best error probability distribution was obtained by fitting the error histogram with nonparametric kernel density estimation. Prediction intervals at different confidence levels were calculated and the error certainty was quantified. A case study was conducted to compare prediction accuracy and reliability by using the present and proposed methods. Results demonstrate that the LGBM deterministic prediction model combined with Bayesian optimization has better prediction accuracy and lower computational cost than the comparative models, specifically when the input features are high-dimensional big data. The nonparametric estimation method with conditional dependence is reliable for interval prediction. The proposed method has a certain reference value for wind turbines participating in frequency regulation and power control of power grid.

The accuracy of wind power prediction directly affects the operation cost of power grid and is the result of power grid supply and demand balance. Therefore, how to improve the prediction accuracy of wind power is very important. In order to improve the prediction accuracy of wind power, a prediction model based on wavelet denoising and improved slime mold algorithm optimized support vector machine is proposed. The wavelet denoising algorithm is used to denoise the wind power data, and then the support vector machine is used as the prediction model. Because the prediction results of support vector machine are greatly affected by model parameters, an improved slime mold optimization algorithm with random inertia weight mechanism is used to determine the best penalty factor and kernel function parameters in support vector machine model. The effectiveness of the proposed prediction model is verified by using two groups actually collected wind power data. Seven prediction models are selected as the comparison model. Through the comparison between the predicted value and the actual value, the prediction error and its histogram distribution, the performance indicators, the Pearson’s correlation coefficient, the DM test, box-plot distribution, the results show that the proposed prediction model has high prediction accuracy.

With the continuous optimization of energy structures, wind power generation has become the dominant new energy source. The strong random fluctuation of natural wind will bring challenges to power system dispatching, so it is necessary to predict wind power. In order to improve the short-term prediction accuracy of regional wind power, this paper proposes a new combination prediction model based on convolutional neural network (CNN) and similar days analysis. Firstly, the least square fitting and batch normalization (BN) are used to preprocess the data, and then the recent historical wind power data set for CNN is established. Secondly, the Pearson correlation coefficient and cosine similarity combination method are utilized to find similar days in the long-term data set, and the prediction model based on similar days is constructed by the weighting method. Finally, based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO) method, a combined forecasting model is established. The results show that the combined model can accurately predict the future short-term wind power curve, and the prediction accuracy is improved to different extents compared to a single method.

The output power prediction of wind farm is the key to effective utilization of wind energy and reduction of wind curtailment. However, the prediction of output power has long been a difficulty faced by both academia and the wind power industry, due to the high stochasticity of wind energy. This paper attempts to improve the ultra-short-term prediction accuracy of output power in wind farm. For this purpose, an output power prediction model was constructed for wind farm based on the time sliding window (TSW) and long short-term memory (LSTM) network. Firstly, the wind power data from multiple sources were fused, and cleaned through operations like dimension reduction and standardization. Then, the cyclic features of the actual output powers were extracted, and used to construct the input dataset by the TSW algorithm. On this basis, the TSW-LSTM prediction model was established to predict the output power of wind farm in ultra-short-term. Next, two regression evaluation metrics were designed to evaluate the prediction accuracy. Finally, the proposed TSW-LSTM model was compared with four other models through experiments on the dataset from an actual wind farm. Our model achieved a super-high prediction accuracy 92.7% as measured by d_MAE, an evidence of its effectiveness. To sum up, this research simplifies the complex prediction features, unifies the evaluation metrics, and provides an accurate prediction model for output power of wind farm with strong generalization ability.

Improving accuracy of wind power prediction is important to maintain power system stability. However, wind power prediction is difficult due to randomness and high volatility characteristics. This study applies a hybrid algorithm that combines ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and support vector regression (SVR) to develop a prediction model for wind power prediction. Ensemble empirical mode decomposition is employed to decompose original data into several Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMF). Finally, a prediction model using support vector regression is built for each IMF individually, and the prediction result of all IMFs is combined to obtain an aggregated output of wind power Numerical testing demonstrated that the proposed method can accurately predict the wind power in Belgian.

With the continuous expansion of wind power grid scale, wind power prediction is an important means to reduce the adverse impact of large-scale grid integration on power grid: the higher prediction accuracy, the better safety, and economy of grid operation. The existing research shows that the quality of input sample data directly affects the accuracy of wind power prediction. By the analysis of measured power data in wind farms, this paper proposes an ultra-short-term multistep prediction model of wind power based on representative unit method, which can fully excavate data information and select reasonable data samples. It uses the similarity measure of time series in data mining, spectral clustering, and correlation coefficient to select the representative units. The least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) model is used as a prediction model for outputs of the representative units. The power of the whole wind farm is obtained by statistical upscaling method. And the number of representative units has a certain impact on prediction accuracy. The case study shows that this method can effectively improve the prediction accuracy, and it can be used as pretreatment method of data. It has a wide range of adaptability.

Multi-step real-time prediction based on the spatial correlation of wind speed is a research hotspot for large-scale wind power grid integration, and this paper proposes a multi-location multi-step wind speed combination prediction method based on the spatial correlation of wind speed. The correlation coefficients were determined by gray relational analysis for each turbine in the wind farm. Based on this, timing-control spatial association optimization is used for optimization and scheduling, obtaining spatial information on the typical turbine and its neighborhood information. This spatial information is reconstructed to improve the efficiency of spatial feature extraction. The reconstructed spatio-temporal information is input into a convolutional neural network with memory cells. Spatial feature extraction and multi-step real-time prediction are carried out, avoiding the problem of missing information affecting prediction accuracy. The method is innovative in terms of both efficiency and accuracy, and the prediction accuracy and generalization ability of the proposed method is verified by predicting wind speed and wind power for different wind farms.
