Description
Summary:Electric load in summer has a significant cyclical trend with temperature effects. In general, the parameters of the SARIMA and the SMA turn out to be nonsignificant in most cases. To address this issue, the hybrid time series model is utilized to extract the spectrum sequences with different frequencies. The original electric load series are first decomposed into the trend sequence “G” and the cycle sequence “C.” After that, a revised ARMAX model is proposed to deal with the two divided sequences. Finally, the combined models are tested by case study. The case study on electric load forecast in one city from China shows that the proposed model outperforms other four comparative models in terms of prediction accuracy. It proves that the combined model proposed by the authors is more accurate than those based on a single forecasting method.
