Short Term Electric Load Forecasting with Back Propagation Neural Network and Simulated Annealing Genetic Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Although, Back Propagation Neural Network are frequently implemented to forecast short-term electricity load, however, this training algorithm is criticized for its slow and improper convergence and poor generalization. There is a great need to explore the techniques that can overcome the above mentioned limitations to improve the forecast accuracy. In this paper, an improved BP neural network training algorithm is proposed that hybridizes simulated annealing and genetic algorithm (SA-GA). This hybrid approach leads to the integration of powerful local search capability of simulated annealing and near accurate global search performance of genetic algorithm. The proposed technique has shown better results in terms of load forecast accuracy and faster convergence. ISO New England data for the period of five years is employed to develop a case study that validates the efficacy of the proposed technique.
