Summary: | Accurate long-term load forecasting (LTLF) is crucial for smart grid operations, but existing CNN-based methods face challenges in extracting essential features from electricity load data, resulting in diminished forecasting performance. To overcome this limitation, we propose a novel ensemble model that integrates a feature extraction module, densely connected residual block (DCRB), long short-term memory layer (LSTM), and ensemble thinking. The feature extraction module captures the randomness and trends in climate data, enhancing the accuracy of load data analysis. Leveraging the DCRB, our model demonstrates superior performance by extracting features from multi-scale input data, surpassing conventional CNN-based models. We evaluate our model using hourly load data from Odisha and day-wise data from Delhi, and the experimental results exhibit low root mean square error (RMSE) values of 0.952 and 0.864 for Odisha and Delhi, respectively. This research contributes to a comparative long-term electricity forecasting analysis, showcasing the efficiency of our proposed model in power system management. Moreover, the model holds the potential to sup-port decision making processes, making it a valuable tool for stakeholders in the electricity sector. |
