Abstract

Short-term load forecasting is the guarantee for the safe, stable, and economical operation of power systems. Deep learning methods have been proven effective in obtaining accurate forecasting results. However, in recent years, the large-scale integration of distributed photovoltaic systems (DPVS) has caused changes in load curve fluctuations. Current deep learning models generally train with historical load series and load-related meteorological data series as input features, which limits the model’s ability to recognize the load fluctuations caused by DPVS. In order to further improve the accuracy of load forecasting models, this paper proposes an input feature reconstruction method based on the maximum information coefficient (MIC). Firstly, the load curves with DPVS are classified by Gaussian mixture model (GMM) clustering. Then, considering the coupling relationship between the load and input features at different times, the load data and input features are reordered. Finally, the MIC between different features and loads at different times is calculated to select the relevant features at those different times and construct new input features. The case analysis shows that the feature reconstruction strategy proposed in this paper effectively improves the prediction performance of deep neural networks.
