Abstract

Certain exemplary embodiments provide a method comprising: providing system electrical load information for an electric power system to one or more neural networks; and via the one or more neural networks, predicting a system electrical load for a predetermined immediate future period.

Claims (42)

1. A method, comprising:

receiving system electrical load information for an electric power system at one or more neural networks;

via the one or more neural networks, predicting a system electrical load for a predetermined immediate future period in predetermined intervals; and

providing the predicted system electrical load to a Dynamic Economic Dispatch module adapted to use a Lagrange Multiplier approach to determine a response to the predicted system electrical load.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving an identification of a source of the system electrical load information.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining system electrical load information.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining historical system electrical load information.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining actual system electrical load information for a predetermined immediate past period.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining actual system electrical load information for a predetermined immediate past period in predetermined intervals.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

filtering the system electrical load information.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

normalizing the system electrical load information.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

smoothing the system electrical load information.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining patterns in the system electrical load information.

11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

classifying the system electrical load information.

12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

calculating parameters of the system electrical load information.

13. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

training the one or more neural networks.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more neural networks utilize a nonlinear dynamic model.

15. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the one or more neural networks is responsible for a non-overlapping time period of a day.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the system electrical load information is provided to the one or more neural networks automatically at a predetermined frequency.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the system electrical load information is provided to the one or more neural networks manually.

18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the system electrical load information comprises incremental system load information.

19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the system electrical load information comprises absolute system load information.

20. A machine-readable medium containing instructions for activities comprising:

receiving system electrical load information for an electric power system at one or more neural networks;

via the one or more neural networks, predicting a system electrical load for a predetermined immediate future period in predetermined intervals; and

providing the predicted system electrical load to a Dynamic Economic Dispatch module adapted to use a Lagrange Multiplier approach to determine a response to the predicted system electrical load.

21. A system comprising:

one or more neural networks adapted to predict a system electrical load for an electric power system, the system electrical load predicted for a predetermined immediate future period in predetermined intervals;

a Dynamic Economic Dispatch module adapted to use a Lagrange Multiplier approach to determine a response to the predicted system electrical load, the predicted system electrical load received from said one or more neural networks; and
