Toward explainable heat load patterns prediction for district heating

Abstract: Heat networks play a vital role in the energy sector by offering thermal energy to residents in certain countries. Effective management and optimization of heat networks require a deep understanding of users' heat usage patterns. Irregular patterns, such as peak usage periods, can exceed the design capacities of the system. However, previous work has mostly neglected the analysis of heat usage profiles or performed on a small scale. To close the gap, this study proposes a data-driven approach to analyze and pr… Show more

“…For time series forecasting, various data-driven algorithm approaches are available, broadly categorized into two groups: Statistical models of the ARIMA/SARIMA class, which model time correlations among input variables using statistical methods with a well-established theoretical foundation, and machine learning algorithms such as boosting and support vector regression (see e.g. [2], [7]). In Predict-IT, a state-of-theart LSTM-based neural network is adopted due to its capability to represent time series data with complex system dependencies [1], [8].…”

“…In contrast, DH research has extensively delved into predictive models for other aspects, such as heat load prediction, as evidenced by studies like [11][12][13][14]. These load predictions can be used to understand the nature of future heat loads for better day-ahead planning in the system from both a production and a grid standpoint to avoid faults due to misconfiguration of set points, which could lead to not enough supply to consumers.…”
