Short-term load forecasting is crucial for the efficient management of electric systems and the development of reliable energy infrastructure. A novel integrated model combining wavelet transform decomposition, radial basis function network, and thermal exchange optimization algorithm was developed. The performance of this model was evaluated in two deregulated power markets and compared with various standard forecasting models.
Electrical load forecasting plays a crucial role in planning and operating power plants for utility factories, as well as for policymakers seeking to devise reliable and efficient energy infrastructure. Load forecasting can be categorized into three types: long-term, mid-term, and short-term. Various models, including artificial intelligence and conventional and mixed models, can be used for short-term load forecasting. Electricity load forecasting is particularly important in countries with restructured electricity markets. The accuracy of short-term load forecasting is crucial for the efficient management of electric systems. Precise forecasting offers advantages for future projects and economic activities of power system operators. In this study, a novel integrated model for short-term load forecasting has been developed, which combines the wavelet transform decomposition (WTD) model, a radial basis function network, and the Thermal Exchange Optimization (TEO) algorithm. The performance of this model was evaluated in two diverse deregulated power markets: the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland electricity market and the Spanish electricity market. The obtained results are compared with various acceptable standard forecasting models.
