Abstract:

Objectives To ensure the stable operation of the power grid, it is crucial to accurately predict the multivariate loads within an integrated energy system. To address the issues of low prediction accuracy and the coupling between multivariate loads in current algorithms, a predictive algorithm based on the composite correlation coefficient (CCC) is proposed. Methods The Savitzky-Golay (SG) filter and sparrow search algorithm (SSA) are used to optimize variational mode decomposition (VMD) for processing the characteristics of raw data. Subsequently, the CCC is utilized to analyze coupling, and highly correlated features are manually extracted and input into a gated recurrent unit (GRU) neural network combined with an encoder-decoder (ED) structure to obtain multivariate load prediction results. Finally, based on the aforementioned algorithm, experimental verification is carried out using numerical examples. Results Compared with traditional GRU, long short-term memory network, and bidirectional GRU prediction models, the proposed algorithm reduces the prediction errors of electric load by 0.55%, 0.49%, and 0.17%, respectively. The prediction errors of cooling load are reduced by 0.71%, 0.54%, and 0.19%, respectively. The prediction errors of heat load are reduced by 0.62%, 0.55%, and 0.19%, respectively. Conclusions The proposed algorithm model captures key information more effectively, demonstrates certain advantages over other algorithms, and improves prediction accuracy.
