Abstract:

Objectives Weather and random factors can alter the statistical characteristics of errors. Therefore, this study considers feature extraction of various climate factors that affect wind power. To optimize the extraction of power time series features, a wind power prediction method based on multi-feature extraction (MFE), convolutional neural network (CNN), and long short-term memory (LSTM) network is proposed. Methods Firstly, 11 statistical features are extracted from numerical weather prediction (NWP) data. By extracting basic and statistical features, the original data is clustered, and prediction models are established according to categories to improve the adaptability of prediction models. Next, the network architecture of LSTM is improved. By leveraging the feature extraction ability of CNN and the nonlinear sequence prediction ability of LSTM, the historical information of wind power and NWP data is thoroughly explored. Finally, using the data from a wind farm in Xinjiang, China, the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed short-term wind power prediction method are verified by MFE and CNN ablation experiments. Results The MFE-CNN-LSTM prediction method shows a decrease in both root mean square error and mean absolute error, compared with the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA), fully recurrent neural network (FRNN), MFE-LSTM and CNN-LSTM models. Conclusions The MFE-CNN-LSTM prediction method can effectively extract features, and MFE and CNN effectively improve prediction accuracy.
