“…Because of the high latency and computational cost of NWP, physical methods have limited utility for short-term predictions, although they can perform well for long forecasting horizons (greater than 6 h). Different from them, statistical methods model wind speed/power as a stochastic process formed from the available time series of historical data [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 ]. These models have lower complexity and latency than the physical ones, so they are preferred for short-term forecasting horizons.…”
