Revolutionizing Wind Power Forecasting

With the global depletion of fossil fuel resources and escalating environmental challenges, the need for clean, sustainable energy sources has become more urgent than ever. Among various renewable energy options, wind energy has gained significant traction due to its eco-friendly nature and abundance. However, the inherent intermittency and unpredictability of wind power pose critical challenges for its integration into power grids. Accurate forecasting of wind energy is, therefore, essential for grid stability, power system reliability, and efficient energy management. This research investigates a comprehensive wind prediction framework based on real-world data from Penmanshiel wind farm in Scotland, offering both deterministic and uncertainty-based forecasts over multiple time horizons. Challenges in Wind Power Grid Integration Despite the rapid growth of wind energy installations worldwide, large-scale grid integration remains a technical challenge. Wind's variable nature lea...
