Machine Learning Techniques for Decarbonizing and Managing Renewable Energy Grids

Abstract

Given the vitality of the renewable-energy grid market, the optimal allocation of clean energy is crucial. An optimal dispatching method for source–load coordination of renewable-energy grid is proposed. An improved K-means clustering algorithm is used to preprocess the source data and historical load data. A support vector machine is used to predict the cluster of renewable-energy grid resources and load data, and typical scenarios are selected from the prediction results. Taking typical scenarios as a representative, the probability distribution of wind power output is accurately obtained. An optimization model of the total operation cost of the renewable-energy grid is established. The experimental results show that the algorithm reduces the error between the predicted value and the actual value. Our method can improve the real-time prediction accuracy of the renewable-energy grid system and increase the economic benefits of the renewable energy grid.
