Hybrid predictive models for accurate forecasting in PV systems

Abstract

The accurate forecasting of energy production from renewable sources represents an important topic also looking at different national authorities that are starting to stimulate a greater responsibility towards plants using non-programmable renewables. In this paper the authors use advanced hybrid evolutionary techniques of computational intelligence applied to photovoltaic systems forecasting, analyzing the predictions obtained by comparingdifferent definitions of the forecasting error. © 2013 by the authors.
