Abstract

Load Forecasting is of great significance for effective and efficient operation of power system. Use of time series is of much importance in load forecasting. In this study, effectiveness of different time series techniques is identified to gathered valuable information. The objective is to predict electric load efficiently and effectively. This paper analyses the prediction accuracy of variety of time series method in modeling Electric load forecasts. The study examines the time series forecasting methods applied to estimate future electric load, specifically, Moving Average (MA), Linear Trend, the Exponential and Parabolic Trend. A comparison of different forecasting techniques of Time Series is demonstrated on real time data. The data utilized for forecast is made available through a distribution company of India. The traditional linear models and hybrid models along with ANN are developed. These models are appraised for the forecasting capability.
