Managing renewable energy in smart grids poses a significant challenge due to the inherent uncertainty and variability of energy sources like solar and wind power. To address this issue, we propose a novel approach that leverages the strengths of both Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms. Our method utilizes ELM to model and predict renewable energy generation, enabling more accurate forecasting and planning. Meanwhile, PSO optimizes the parameters of the ELM algorithm, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. We evaluated our approach using a dataset of solar energy production and compared its performance to existing optimization techniques. The results show that our ELM-PSO approach significantly improves the accuracy of renewable energy predictions and reduces energy costs in smart grids. The implications of our research are far-reaching, as our approach can be applied to various renewable energy systems, including wind turbines, solar panels, and hydroelectric power plants. By enhancing the efficiency and reliability of renewable energy utilization, we can create a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
