Optimal transmission line rating use is guaranteed with dynamic line rating (DLR), which is a smart grid technology that adjusts line rating based on predicted variations in meteorological conditions. This study compared different DLR forecasting techniques, including ensemble means forecasting, recurrent neural network (RNN), and convolution neural network (CNN), and found that ensemble forecasting is the most reliable and secure method.
Optimal transmission line rating use is guaranteed with dynamic line rating (DLR). It is a smart grid technology that foresees variations in meteorological conditions affecting line rating and deploys algorithms to effect changes to the line rating due to these conditions. Electric power system operators use forecasted DLR for system planning, operation, and delivery. This study reviewed DLR forecasting techniques, classified them, implemented them, and compared their outputs at different lead times. It used ensemble means forecasting, recurrent neural network (RNN), and convolution neural network (CNN). Ensemble forecasting technique deployed in this study involves a Monte-Carlo simulation that produces random, equally viable predicting solutions. Alternatively, a neural network layer's initial outcome is fed back into it to predict the output in RNN, while CNN learns to predict features that vary in time and space with marginal discrepancies. This study used quantile regression (QR), ensemble forecasting, RNN and CNN to forecast DLR at 12hrs, 24hrs and 48hrs. The tested forecasting approaches prove efficient, but ensemble forecasting seems less error-prone, more secure and conservative among all methods. On average, 75th percentile quantile regression and ensemble forecasting demonstrate better reliability and avail us the better choice of ampacity among the forecasting techniques.
