Abstract:

Accurate forecasting on integrated energy demands will be the basis for the scheduling and energy efficiency assessment of regional integrated energy systems. Integrated energy demand forecasting is infected by multiple factors. And being hampered by complex design parameters and low calculation efficiency,there is plenty of room for the optimization of current long series prediction method. Therefore,an integrated energy demand forecasting method based on Transformer algorithm is proposed. Firstly,influencing factors are screened from pre-processed data by the influence factor selection model for the cooling,heating and electricity loads in a park. Secondly,similar days are categorized based on the Euclidean distance,which lays a foundation for the integrated energy prediction. Then,a forecasting model for cooling,heating and electricity loads based on Transformer algorithm is established to predict the integrated energy demand in the park. Finally,the proposed forecasting model is tested on a park located in eastern China,and the results verified its prediction accuracy and effectiveness.

Key words: integrated energy in parks, Transformer algorithm, energy demand forecasting, similar day, cooling, heating and electricity loads
