For short-term load forecasting of different types of users

support vector machine and deep learning model are widely used at present. A hybrid model is proposed to solve the problems of the least squares support vector machine model

such as the difficulty in determining the super parameters

the high data quality requirements of the model

and the slow optimization speed and easy to fall into the local optimization of the integrated conventional optimization algorithm. Firstly

the original feature data is clustered by hierarchical clustering and then the corresponding least squares support vector machine model is established for the same prediction day. Then

the super parameters in least squares support vector machine are heuristic searched by the improved simulated annealing algorithm. Finally

by comparing the performance of the load forecasting model with that of various load forecasting models

the results show that the proposed model can effectively improve the ac?curacy of load forecasting and shorten the forecasting time.
