Ultra-Short-Term Photovoltaic Power Prediction Based on Improved Temporal Convolutional Network and Feature Modeling
摘要
Abstract
Accurate ultra-short-term photovoltaic (PV) power forecasting is crucial for mitigating variations caused by PV power generation and ensuring the stable and efficient operation of power grids. To capture intricate temporal relationships and enhance the precision of multi-step time forecast
this paper introduces an innovative approach for ultra-short-term photovoltaic (PV) power prediction
leveraging an enhanced Temporal Convolutional Neural Network (TCN) architecture and feature modeling. First
this study introduces a method employing the Spearman coefficient for meteorological feature filtration. Integrated with three-dimensional PV panel modeling
key factors influencing PV power generation are identified and prioritized. Second
the analysis of the correlation coefficient between astronomical features and PV power prediction demonstrates the theoretical substantiation for the practicality and essentiality of incorporating astronomical features. Third
an enhanced TCN model is introduced
augmenting the original TCN structure with a projection head layer to enhance its capacity for learning and expressing nonlinear features. Meanwhile
a new rolling timing network mechanism is constructed to guarantee the segmentation prediction of future long-time output sequences. Multiple experiments demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed forecasting method compared to existing models. The accuracy of PV power prediction in the next 4 hours
devoid of meteorological conditions
increases by 20.5%. Furthermore
incorporating shortwave radiation for predictions over 4 hours
