Load forecasting, chaos theory, ANFISAbstrakt
In the electrical power sector, forecasting of load demand is an important process for effective planning of future expansion and periodical operations including unit commitments, fuel scheduling, short term maintenance, security assessments, reducing spinning reserve, reliability analysis etc. Accurate load predictions are also necessary to utilize the electrical energy efficiently and to minimize the conflicts between the demand and supply of electricity. As electric load pattern of a region is very complex and is affected by many factors (such as economic, temperature, etc.) hence, it is necessary to develop new and effective methods for its prediction. In this paper, a method based on ANFIS (adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system) and chaos theory has been utilized for short term prediction (hourly) of electrical load. Daily load demand real data of Delhi region has been used as a case study. Largest Lyapunov exponent of the load demand time series, as calculated by using the method of phase space reconstruction, is found to be positive. This indicates the chaotic nature (hence, short time predictability) of the load demand time series. A part of the load demand data is used for training the ANFIS and rest of it is used to test the effectiveness of the proposed method for load prediction. Prediction performance is quantized in terms of a number of performance measures. Low values of mean absolute percentage error, relative error percentage and root mean square relative errors verify the accuracy of the proposed method and thus indicate its effectiveness for load demand prediction.
