This study focuses on developing statistical and machine learning approaches for forecasting electricity demand in Ontario. The novel aspects of the study include identifying significant factors affecting electricity consumption, optimizing model hyperparameters using a Bayesian optimization algorithm, and comparing the performance of different models. The results show that the hybrid BOA-NARX model performs well in accurately predicting day-ahead electricity load forecasts.
This article focuses on developing both statistical and machine learning approaches for forecasting hourly electricity demand in Ontario. The novelties of this study include (i) identifying essential factors that have a significant effect on electricity consumption, (ii) the execution of a Bayesian optimization algorithm (BOA) to optimize the model hyperparameters, (iii) hybridizing the BOA with the seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average with exogenous inputs (SARIMAX) and nonlinear autoregressive networks with exogenous input (NARX) for modeling separately short-term electricity demand for the first time, (iv) comparing the model's performance using several performance indicators and computing efficiency, and (v) validation of the model performance using unseen data. Six features (viz., snow depth, cloud cover, precipitation, temperature, irradiance toa, and irradiance surface) were found to be significant. The Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of five consecutive weekdays for all seasons in the hybrid BOA-NARX is obtained at about 3%, while a remarkable variation is observed in the hybrid BOA-SARIMAX. BOA-NARX provides an overall steady Relative Error (RE) in all seasons (1 similar to 6.56%), while BOA-SARIMAX provides unstable results (Fall: 0.73 similar to 2.98%; Summer: 8.41 similar to 14.44%). The coefficient of determination (R-2) values for both models are >0.96. Overall results indicate that both models perform well; however, the hybrid BOA-NARX reveals a stable ability to handle the day-ahead electricity load forecasts.
