Popis: | Although photovoltaic arrays are a highly reliable solution to generating energy, the full scale use of these integrated arrays presents formidable challenges since their future generation carries high uncertainty. In this paper, the success of a large-scale solar farm in generating different percentages of its committed value is forecasted by a new opinion formation model. In the proposed model, each node uses local generation data, transforms them to a fuzzy set called perception, and evolves its fuzzy opinion about the entire farm's future generation by using this perception and negotiating with other nodes. As a result, the fuzzy predictions, which can be used in fuzzy energy management systems, are achieved with simple, distributed, and scalable computations. As a case study, Belgium is considered here as the entire solar farm with its provinces as the local generation units. To evaluate the predicted fuzzy opinions, we extract the lower/upper and point-wise predictions from them and compare these ex... |
