“…In several researches, a variety of forecasting techniques based on data mining were used to estimate future power or energy consumption. Multiple linear regression approach (Bianco et al., 2013; Ekonomou, 2010; Kialashaki & Reisel, 2014; Panklib et al., 2015), fuzzy logic (Ali et al., 2016; Islas et al., 2021; Kucukali & Baris, 2010; Olaru et al., 2022; Zahedi et al., 2013), autoregressive forecasting methods (Guefano et al., 2021; Kaytez, 2020; Nawaz et al., 2014; Nepal et al., 2020; Ozturk & Ozturk, 2018), support vector regression methods (Ekonomou, 2010; Hong & Fan, 2019; Kavaklioglu, 2011; Kaytez, 2020; Shao et al., 2020) and ANN (Ekonomou, 2010; Elbeltagi & Wefki, 2021; Günay, 2016; Kialashaki & Reisel, 2014; Li et al., 2018; Sarkar, Shankar, & Chaurasiya, 2015; Sarkar, Shankar, Thakur, et al., 2015; Torabi et al., 2019; Zahedi et al., 2013) have been extensively employed for this purpose. Several studies have been published over the past 10 years using a variety of approaches to anticipate the demand for electricity in various nations.…”
