Solar Photovoltaic Power Forecasting

الملخص EN

The management of clean energy is usually the key for environmental, economic, and sustainable developments.

In the meantime, the energy management system (EMS) ensures the clean energy which includes many sources grouped in a small power plant such as microgrid (MG).

In this case, the forecasting methods are used for helping the EMS and allow the high efficiency to the clean energy.

The aim of this review paper is providing the necessary data about the basic principles and standards of photovoltaic (PV) power forecasting by stating numerous research studies carried out on the PV power forecasting topic specifically in the short-term time horizon which is advantageous for the EMS and grid operator.

At the same time, this contribution can offer a state of the art in different methods and approaches used for PV power forecasting along with a careful study of different time and spatial horizons.

Furthermore, this current review paper can support the tenders in the PV power forecasting.
