It suits outage and maintenance planning, as well as load switching operation. We propose a new methodol-ogy that uses hourly daily loads to predict the next year hourly loads, and hence predict the peak loads expected to be reached in the next coming year. The technique is based on implementing multivariable regression on previous year's hourly loads. Three regression models are investigated in this research: the linear, the polynomial, and the exponential power. The proposed models are applied to real loads of the Jordanian power system. Results obtained using the pro-posed methods showed that their performance is close and they outperform results obtained using the widely used ex-ponential regression technique. Moreover, peak load prediction has about 90% accuracy using the proposed method-ology. The methods are generic and simple and can be implemented to hourly loads of any power system. No extra in-formation other than the hourly loads is required.展开更多

The analysis is done through linear regression and based on the identification of factors on which electrical load growth depends. To determine the identification factors, areas are selected whose histories of load growth rate known and the load growth deciding factors are similar to those of the isolated area. The proposed analysis is applied to an isolated area of Bangladesh, called Swandip where a past history of electrical load demand is not available and also there is no possibility of connecting the area with the main land grid system.展开更多

In MPMR, regression function maximizes the minimum probability that future predication will be within an ε to the true regression function. After exploring the principle of MPMR, and verifying the chaotic property of the load series from a certain power system, one-day-ahead predictions for 24 time points next day wcre done with MPMR. Thc results demonstrate that MPMP has satisfactory prediction efficiency. Kernel function shape parameter and regression tube value may influence the MPMR-based system performance. In the experiments, cross validation was used to choose the two parameters.展开更多
