Description
Summary:A power delivery system exists because consumers want electric power. With supply and demand fluctuating and the changes of weather conditions and energy prices increasing during peak situations, load forecasting is vitally important for utilities. Electric load forecasting can be divided into three categories that are short term load forecasting, medium term load forecasting and long term load forecasting. The short term load forecasting predicts the load demand in time interval from one day to several weeks. It can help to estimate load flows and to make decisions that can prevent overloading. Therefore it leads to the improvement of network reliability and reduces occurrences of equipment failures and blackouts. The medium term load forecasting predicts the load demand from a month to several years.
