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.

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.

The accuracy of short-term wind power forecast is important for the power system operation. Based on the real-time wind power data, a wind power prediction model using wavelet neural network (WNN) is proposed. In order to overcome such disadvantages of WNN as easily falling into local minimum, this paper put forward using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize the weight and threshold of WNN. It’s advisable to use Support Vector Machine (SVM) to comparatively do prediction and put two outcomes as input vector for Generalized Regression Neural Network (GRNN) to do nonlinear combination forecasting. Simulation shows that combination prediction model can improve the accuracy of the short-term wind power prediction.

To improve the accuracy of ultra-short-term wind power prediction, this paper proposed a model using modified long short-term memory (LSTM) to predict ultra-short-term wind power. Because the forget gate of standard LSTM cannot reflect the correction effect of prediction errors on model prediction in ultra-short-term, this paper develops the error following forget gate (EFFG)-based LSTM model for ultra-short-term wind power prediction. The proposed EFFG-based LSTM model updates the output of the forget gate using the difference between the predicted value and the actual value, thereby reducing the impact of the prediction error at the previous moment on the prediction accuracy of wind power at this time, and improving the rolling prediction accuracy of wind power. A case study is performed using historical wind power data and numerical prediction meteorological data of an actual wind farm. Study results indicate that the root mean square error of the wind power prediction model based on EFFG-based LSTM is less than 3%, while the accuracy rate and qualified rate are more than 90%. The EFFG-based LSTM model provides better performance than the support vector machine (SVM) and standard LSTM model.

Renewable energy technologies are essential contributors to sustainable energy including renewable energy sources. Wind energy is one of the important renewable energy resources. Therefore, efficient and consistent utilization of wind energy has been an important issue. The wind speed has the characteristics of intermittence and instability. If the wind power is directly connected to the grid, it will impact the voltage and frequency of the power system. Short-term wind power prediction can reduce the impact of wind power on the power grid and the stability of power system operation is guaranteed. In this study, the improved chicken swarm algorithm optimization support vector machine (ICSO-SVM) model is proposed to predict the wind power. The traditional chicken swarm optimization algorithm (CSO) easily falls into a local optimum when solving high-dimensional problems due to its own characteristics. So the CSO algorithm is improved and the ICSO algorithm is developed. In order to verify the validity of the ICSO-SVM model, the following work has been done. (1) The particle swarm optimization (PSO), ICSO, CSO and differential evolution algorithm (DE) are tested respectively by four standard testing functions, and the results are compared. (2) The ICSO-SVM and CSO-SVM models are tested respectively by two sets of wind power data. This study draws the following conclusions: (1) the PSO, CSO, DE and ICSO algorithms are tested by the four standard test functions and the test data are analyzed. By comparing it with the other three optimization algorithms, the ICSO algorithm has the best convergence effect. (2) The number of training samples has an obvious impact on the prediction results. The average relative error percentage and root mean square error (RMSE) values of the ICSO model are smaller than those of CSO-SVM model. Therefore, the ICSO-SVM model can efficiently provide credible short-term predictions for wind power forecasting.

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.
