LSTM Deep Learning Techniques for Wind Power Generation Forecasting

Abstract

Wind power generation forecasting is crucial for the optimal integration of renewable energy sources into power systems. Traditional forecasting methods often struggle to accurately predict wind energy production due to the complex and nonlinear relationships between wind speed, weather parameters, and power output. In recent years, deep learning techniques have emerged as promising alternatives for wind power forecasting. This conference paper provides a comprehensive review of deep learning techniques, with a specific focus on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, for short-term wind power generation forecasting. Leveraging insights from recent research and empirical evaluations, this paper explores the effectiveness of LSTM networks in capturing temporal dependencies in wind data and improving prediction accuracy. The review highlights the potential of LSTM-based models to enhance the integration of wind energy into power systems and provides guidance for future research in this area.
