Research on Power Grid Load Forecasting Method Based on Support Vector Machine

Abstract In order to improve the accuracy of power load forecasting, a power load forecasting model with the support vector machine (SVM) was proposed in the existing load forecasting methods. Firstly, establish the basic analysis on the SVM theoretical foundation. Through the establishment of SVM prediction model, the real power data is sent into the support vector machine prediction model for learning and forecasting once it has been processed. Think about the electricity grid load change rule states, our enterprises accurately understand the local power grid operation and scheduling measures by estimating the electricity uses. Meanwhile, it optimizes the power grid management through careful scheduling means, prevent excessive consumption of resources and large energy consumption. To achieve the prediction effect, this paper builds the prediction model and analyses the data with the MATLAB. In the experiment, the real value is compared with the anticipated value. Through the analysis of more than 8000 load data, the accuracy of the training set is 96.184%, and the accuracy of the test set is 96.6134%. The outcomes demonstrate the great accuracy of the SVM prediction model in predicting electricity load.
