Photovoltaic Power Plant Production Prediction via Modified Metaheuristic Optimized Gated Recurrent Networks
摘要
Addressing climate change, cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and achieving global sustainability objectives all depend on the switch to renewable energy. Solar energy is unique among renewable energy sources because of its extensive availability and substantial potential for both environmental and economic advantages. However, there are special difficulties in incorporating solar energy into traditional grid infrastructures, especially when it comes to handling and forecasting time-series data that is inherently variable. Aiming to successfully tackle these issues, this work presents a unique strategy that combines gated recurrent units (GRUs) with a modified sinh-cosh optimization method (SCHO). Hyperparameter optimization, which is essential for maximizing model performance and guaranteeing reliable predictions, is a major area of attention for this work. The suggested approach effectively traverses intricate hyperparameter spaces by utilizing the modified SCHO, improving model stability and accuracy. Simulations using real-world data show encouraging results; the top models achieve a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) as low as 9.1%, indicating the efficacy of the method.
