A novel combined wind speed forecasting system based on fuzzy granulation and multi-objective optimization

Abstract

With the increasing application of wind energy, reliable wind speed prediction has become imperative. However, prior studies predominantly concentrated on single-model predictions, disregarding the inherent uncertainty in wind speed. This oversight resulted in inadequate deterministic and probabilistic forecasting outcomes across varying scenarios. To make up for these shortcomings, a novel forecasting system combining a data preprocessing technique, a sub-model selection method, and a modified multi-objective integrate optimization strategy is designed in this paper. According to the data obtained from China's wind farm, the forecasting efficiency of this system is verified from multiple perspectives. The findings show that the system takes advantage of each model to boost the precision and stability of point prediction successfully. Furthermore, it achieves higher interval coverage and narrower interval width under distinct confidence levels. These results highlight the system's potential as a reliable technical support for efficient dispatching of the entire power system.
