Solar Power Prediction via Support Vector Machine and Random Forest

Due to the variability and instability of photovoltaic (PV) output, the accurate prediction of PV output power plays a major role in energy market for PV operators to optimize their profits in energy market. In order to predict PV output, environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, rainf...
