Abstract Electricity is essential for keeping power networks balanced between supply and demand, especially since it costs a lot to store. The article talks about different deep learning methods that are used to guess how much green energy different Asian countries will produce. The main goal is to make reliable and accurate predictions that can help with the planning of new power plants to meet rising demand. There is a new deep learning model called the Green-electrical Production Ensemble (GP-Ensemble). It combines three types of neural networks: convolutional neural networks (CNNs), gated recurrent units (GRUs), and… More >

Abstract Time series prediction has always been an important problem in the field of machine learning. Among them, power load forecasting plays a crucial role in identifying the behavior of photovoltaic power plants and regulating their control strategies. Traditional power load forecasting often has poor feature extraction performance for long time series. In this paper, a new deep learning framework Residual Stacked Temporal Long Short-Term Memory (RST-LSTM) is proposed, which combines wavelet decomposition and time convolutional memory network to solve the problem of feature extraction for long sequences. The network framework of RST-LSTM consists of two More >

Abstract To enhance the refinement of load decomposition in power systems and fully leverage seasonal change information to further improve prediction performance, this paper proposes a seasonal short-term load combination prediction model based on modal decomposition and a feature-fusion multi-algorithm hybrid neural network model. Specifically, the characteristics of load components are analyzed for different seasons, and the corresponding models are established. First, the improved complete ensemble empirical modal decomposition with adaptive noise (ICEEMDAN) method is employed to decompose the system load for all four seasons, and the new sequence is obtained through reconstruction based on the… More >

Abstract The increasingly large number of electric vehicles (EVs) has resulted in a growing concern for EV charging station load prediction for the purpose of comprehensively evaluating the influence of the charging load on distribution networks. To address this issue, an EV charging station load prediction method is proposed in coupled urban transportation and distribution networks. Firstly, a finer dynamic urban transportation network model is formulated considering both nodal and path resistance. Then, a finer EV power consumption model is proposed by considering the influence of traffic congestion and ambient temperature. Thirdly, the Monte Carlo method… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Today, urban traffic, growing populations, and dense transportation networks are contributing to an increase in traffic incidents. These incidents include traffic accidents, vehicle breakdowns, fires, and traffic disputes, resulting in long waiting times, high carbon emissions, and other undesirable situations. It is vital to estimate incident response times quickly and accurately after traffic incidents occur for the success of incident-related planning and response activities. This study presents a model for forecasting the traffic incident duration of traffic events with high precision. The proposed model goes through a 4-stage process using various features to predict the… More >

Abstract Accurate load forecasting forms a crucial foundation for implementing household demand response plans and optimizing load scheduling. When dealing with short-term load data characterized by substantial fluctuations, a single prediction model is hard to capture temporal features effectively, resulting in diminished prediction accuracy. In this study, a hybrid deep learning framework that integrates attention mechanism, convolution neural network (CNN), improved chaotic particle swarm optimization (ICPSO), and long short-term memory (LSTM), is proposed for short-term household load forecasting. Firstly, the CNN model is employed to extract features from the original data, enhancing the quality of data… More >
