Short-term wind power prediction with harmony search algorithm: Belen region

“…Long-term predictions of wind energy are necessary for capacity planning and maintenance planning (Kanna and Singh, 2016). Medium term forecasts are used for maintenance planning (Alberdi et al, 2017;Bae et al, 2017), fuel planning (Guangyu et al, 2017) and hydro pool management (Meng et al, 2015). Short-term load prediction is a fundamental and vital factor for daily operations, unit commitment and timing functions, assessment of net change and system security analysis (Zhou et al, 2016a;Zhou et al, 2016b).…”
