In this paper, a comparison study is presented on artificial intelligence and time series models in 1-hour-ahead wind speed forecasting. Three types of typical neural networks, namely adaptive linear element, multilayer perceptrons, and radial basis function, and ARMA time series model are investigated. The wind speed data used are the hourly mean wind speed data collected at Binalood site in I...

China’s wind power has developed rapidly in the past few years, the large-scale penetration of which will bring big influence on power systems. The wind speed forecasting research is quite important because it can alleviate the negative impacts. This paper reviews the current wind speed forecasting techniques in China. The literature (written in Chinese) sources and classification were firstly ...

Due to notable depletion of fuel, non-conventional energy aids the present grid for Power management across the country. Wind energy indeed has major contribution next to solar. Prediction of wind power is essential to integrate wind farms into the grid. Due to intermittency and variability of wind power, forecasting of wind behavior becomes intricate. Wind speed forecasting tools can resolve t...

Accurate quantification and characterization of a wind energy potential assessment and forecasting is significant to optimal wind farm design, evaluation and scheduling. However, wind energy potential assessment and forecasting remain difficult and challenging research topics at present. Traditional wind energy assessment and forecasting models usually ignore the problem of data pre-processing ...

in recent years, wind energy has a remarkable growth in the world, but one of the important problems of power generated from wind is its uncertainty and corresponding power. for solving this problem, some approaches have been presented. recently, the artificial neural networks (ann) as a heuristic method has more applications for this propose. in this paper, short-term (1 hour) and mid-term (24...

This paper examines a new time series method for very short-term wind speed forecasting. The time series forecasting model is based on Bayesian theory and structural break modeling, which could incorporate domain knowledge about wind speed as a prior. Besides this Bayesian structural break model predicts wind speed as a set of possible values, which is different from classical time series model...

In this paper, an overview of new and current developments in wind forecasting is given where the focus lies upon principles and practical implementations. High penetration of wind power in the electricity system provides many challenges to the power system operators, mainly due to the unpredictability and variability of wind power generation. Although wind energy may not be dispatched, an accu...

Operation of wind power generation in a large farm is quite challenging in a smart grid owing to uncertain weather conditions. Consequently, operators must accurately forecast wind speed/power in the dispatch center to carry out unit commitment, real power scheduling and economic dispatch. This work presents a novel method based on the integration of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) with arti...

Hybrid model is a popular forecasting model in renewable energy related forecasting applications. Wind speed forecasting, as a common application, requires fast and accurate forecasting models. This paper introduces an Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) followed by a k Nearest Neighbor (kNN) hybrid model for wind speed forecasting. Two configurations of EMD-kNN are discussed in details: an EMD-...
