Load forecasting has become a very crucial technique for the efficient functioning of the power system. This paper presents a methodology for the short term load forecasting problem using the similar day concept combined with fuzzy logic approach and particle swarm optimization. To obtain the next-day load forecast, fuzzy logic is used to modify the load curves of the selected similar days of the...
A number of wind speed forecasting techniques are available in order to predict the uncertainty of the wind, which is key to estimate wind power generation availability for the grid. It is gaining more attention with the recent evolution of smart grid, which throws a challenge of integrating wind power into the grid. Several methods have been proposed to provide wind speed prediction. In the recent...
Motivated by the growing demand of accuracy and low computational time in optimizing functions in various fields of engineering, an approach has been presented using the technique of parallel computing. The parallelization has been carried out on one of the simplest and flexible optimization algorithms, namely the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. PSO is a stochastic population global optimizer...
Several strategies have been proposed to provide quality solutions to the unit commitment problem and increase the potential saving in the power system operation. These include deterministic and stochastic search algorithms. One of the limitations of deterministic approaches is, they suffer from the curse of dimensionality when dealing with the modern power system with large number of generators....
