The research and development objectives in the energy sector focus on the modernization and optimization of current power systems to meet the increasing electricity demands. Load forecasting using Artificial Neural Networks is critical for balancing supply and demand and determining electricity prices.
The modernization and optimization of current power systems are the objectives of research and development in the energy sector, which is motivated by the ever-increasing electricity demands. The goal of such research and development is to render power electronic equipment more controllable, to ensure maximal use of current circuits, system flexibility and efficiency, as well as the relatively easy integration of renewable energy resources at all voltage levels. The current revolution in communication technologies and the Internet of Things (IoT) offers us an opportunity to supervise and regulate the power grid, in order to achieve more reliable, efficient, and cost-effective services. One of the most critical aspects of efficient power system operation is the ability to predict energy load requirements, i.e., load forecasting. Load forecasting is essential for balancing demand and supply and for determining electricity prices. Typically, load forecasting has been supported through the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), which, once trained on a set of data, can predict future loads. The accuracy of the ANNs' prediction depends on the quality and availability of the training data. In this paper, we propose novel data pre-processing strategies, which we apply to the data used to train an ANN, and subsequently evaluate the quality of the predictions it produces, to demonstrate the benefits gained. The proposed strategies and the obtained results are illustrated using consumption data from the Greek interconnected power system.
