Description
Summary:The purpose of this project is to study and develop an artificial neural network (ANN) model specifically for short term load prediction. A nonlinear load model is proposed and several structures of ANN for short term load prediction are tested. The outputs obtained were the predicted full day load demand for the next day or week. The ANN model has 4 layers; an input layer, two hidden layers and an output layer. The number of inputs was 6; while the number of hidden layer neurons was varied for different performance of the network. The output layer has 24 neurons. The ANN model was trained for over 5 weeks. A mean absolute percentage errors of 2.52% was achieved when the trained network was tested on random for one week's data.
