Abstract:

Wind speed forecasting is an effective method to improve wind power utilization and power system stability. Previous studies proposed a amount of wind speed forecast models, but there are few comparative studies on wind speed forecast models for different underlying land cover. This study mainly explores the ability of wavelet packet decomposition, 12 machine learning models and their coupled models to forecast the wind speed for three different underlying land cover and landforms (gobi, oasis and desert), and explores the optimized coupled model for wind speed forecast. Three sets of model experiments were set up for comparison in the article: single XXX model, WPD-XXX hybrid model and WPD-XXX-CNN hybrid model. We found that the deep learning models with feature selection, memory functions (such as convolutional long short-term memory networks) and extreme learning machine have better forecast capabilities for wind speed forecast. The wavelet packet decomposition significantly improves model accuracy. The coupled modesl of wavelet packet decomposition and convolutional long short-term memory network, convolutional gated recurrent unit network has better performance. This shows that the use of signal decomposition and the coupling of deep learning models can effectively improve the forecast accuracy of the models. It could be widely used in industry practices.
