A Simple Hybrid Model for Short-Term Load Forecasting

الملخص EN

The paper proposes a simple hybrid model to forecast the electrical load data based on the wavelet transform technique and double exponential smoothing.

The historical noisy load series data is decomposed into deterministic and fluctuation components using suitable wavelet coefficient thresholds and wavelet reconstruction method.

The variation characteristics of the resulting series are analyzed to arrive at reasonable thresholds that yield good denoising results.

The constitutive series are then forecasted using appropriate exponential adaptive smoothing models.

A case study performed on California energy market data demonstrates that the proposed method can offer high forecasting precision for very short-term forecasts, considering a time horizon of two weeks.
