5 Wind Power Forecasting - History Our methods for probabilistic wind power forecasting have been implemented in the Anemos Wind Power Prediction System, Australian Wind Energy Forecasting Systems (AWEFS) and WPPT The methods have been continuously developed since in collaboration with Energinet.dk, Dong Energy, Vattenfall, Risø DTU Wind, The ANEMOS projects partners/consortium (since 2002), Overspeed GmbH (Anemos: ENFOR (WPPT: Used operationally for predicting wind power in Denmark since Now used by all major players in Denmark (Energinet.dk, DONG, Vattenfall,..) Anemos/WPPT is now used eg in Europe, Australia, and North America. Often used as forecast engine embedded in other systems. Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 5
6 Prediction Performance A typical (power curve only!) performance measure. 13 large parks. Installed power: 1064 MW. Period: August March MET input is in all cases ECMWF. Criterion used: RMSE (notice: Power Curve model only) WPPT PC Simple model Commercial model 1 Commercial model Nominal power: 1064 MW RMSE Normalized power Forecast horizon (hours) Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 6
7 Prediction of wind power In areas with high penetration of wind power such as the Western part of Denmark and the Northern part of Germany and Spain, reliable wind power predictions are needed in order to ensure safe and economic operation of the power system. Accurate wind power predictions are needed with different prediction horizons in order to ensure (up to a few hours) efficient and safe use of regulation power (spinning reserve) and the transmission system, (12 to 36 hours) efficient trading on the Nordic power exchange, NordPool, (days) optimal operation of eg. large CHP plants. Predictions of wind power are needed both for the total supply area as well as on a regional scale and for single wind farms. For some grids/in some situations the focus is on methods for ramp forecasting, in some other cases the focus in on reliable probabilistic forecasting. Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 7
8 Uncertainty and adaptivity Errors in MET forecasts will end up in errors in wind power forecasts, but other factors lead to a need for adaptation which however leads to some uncertainties. The total system consisting of wind farms measured online, wind turbines not measured online and meteorological forecasts will inevitably change over time as: the population of wind turbines changes, changes in unmodelled or insufficiently modelled characteristics (important examples: roughness and dirty blades), changes in the NWP models. A wind power prediction system must be able to handle these time-variations in model and system. An adequate forecasting system may use adaptive and recursive model estimation to handle these issues. We started (some 20 years ago) assuming Gaussianity; but this is a very serious (wrong) assumption! Following the initial installation the software tool will automatically calibrate the models to the actual situation. Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 8
9 The power curve model The wind turbine power curve model, p tur = f(w tur ) is extended to a wind farm model, p wf = f(w wf,θ wf ), by introducing wind direction dependency. By introducing a representative area wind speed and direction it can be further extended to cover all turbines in an entire region, p ar = f( w ar, θ ar ). P HO - Estimated power curve k k P The power curve model is defined as: Wind direction k Wind speed Wind direction k Wind speed ˆp t+k t = f( w t+k t, θ t+k t, k ) P P where w t+k t is forecasted wind speed, and θ t+k t is forecasted wind direction. Wind direction Wind speed Wind direction Wind speed The characteristics of the NWP change with the prediction horizon. Plots of the estimated power curve for the Hollandsbjerg wind farm. Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 9
10 The dynamical prediction model The power curve models are used as input for an adaptively estimated dynamical model, which (as a simple example) leads to the following k-stop ahead forecasts: ˆp t+k t = a 1 p t +a 2 p t 1 +b ˆp pc t+k t + 3 [c c i cos 2iπh24 t+k +c s i sin 2iπh24 t+k ]+m+e t+k i=1 where p t is observed power production, k [1;48] (hours) is prediction horizon, ˆp pc t+k t is power curve prediction and h 24 t+k is time of day. Model features include multi-step prediction model to handle non-linearities and unmodelled effects, the number of terms in the model depends on the prediction horizon, non-stationarity are handled by adaptive estimation of the model parameters, the deviation between observed and forecasted diurnal variation is described using Fourier expansions. Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 10
11 A model for upscaling The dynamic upscaling model for a region is defined as: ˆp reg t+k t = f( war t+k t, θ ar t+k t, k ) ˆp loc t+k t where ˆp loc t+k t is a local (dynamic) power prediction within the region, w ar t+k t is forecasted regional wind speed, and θ ar t+k t is forecasted regional wind direction. The characteristics of the NWP and ˆp loc change with the prediction horizon. Hence the dependendency of prediction horizon k in the model.

12 Configuration Example This configuration of Anemos Prediction System/WPPT is used by a large TSO. Characteristics for the installation: A large number of wind farms and stand-alone wind turbines. Frequent changes in the wind turbine population. Offline production data with a resolution of 15 min. is available for more than 99% of the wind turbines in the area. Online data for a large number of wind farms are available. The number of online wind farms increases quite frequently.

13 Fluctuations of offshore wind power Fluctuations at large offshore wind farms have a significant impact on the control and management strategies of their power output Focus is given to the minute scale. Thus, the effects related to the turbulent nature of the wind are smoothed out When looking at time-series of power production at Horns Rev (160MW/209MW) and Nysted (165 MW), one observes successive periods with fluctuations of larger and smaller magnitude We aim at building models based on historical wind power measures only but able to reproduce this observed behavior this calls for regime-switching models Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 13

15 Spatio-temporal forecasting Predictive improvement (measured in RMSE) of forecasts errors by adding the spatio-temperal module in WPPT. 23 months ( ) 15 onshore groups Focus here on 1-hour forecast only Larger improvements for eastern part of the region Needed for reliable ramp forecasting. The EU project NORSEWinD will extend the region Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 15
16 Combined forecasting DMI DWD Met Office A number of power forecasts are weighted together to form a new improved power forecast. These could come from parallel configurations of WPPT using NWP inputs from different MET providers or they could come from other power prediction providers. In addition to the improved performance also the robustness of the system is increased. WPPT WPPT WPPT Comb Final The example show results achieved for the Tunø Knob wind farms using combinations of up to 3 power forecasts. RMS (MW) hir02.loc mm5.24.loc Hours since 00Z C.all C.hir02.loc.AND.mm5.24.loc Typically an improvement on pct in accuracy of the point prediction is seen by including more than one MET provider. Two or more MET providers imply information about uncertainty Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 16
17 Uncertainty estimation In many applications it is crucial that a prediction tool delivers reliable estimates (probabilistc forecasts) of the expected uncertainty of the wind power prediction. We consider the following methods for estimating the uncertainty of the forecasted wind power production: Ensemble based - but corrected - quantiles. Quantile regression. Stochastic differential equations. The plots show raw (top) and corrected (bottom) uncertainty intervales based on ECMEF ensembles for Tunø Knob (offshore park), 29/6, 8/10, 10/10 (2003). Shown are the 25%, 50%, 75%, quantiles. kw kw kw kw kw kw Tunø Knob: Nord Pool horizons (init. 29/06/ :00 (GMT), first 12h not in plan) 12:00 18:00 0:00 6:00 12:00 18:00 0:00 Jun Jul Jul Tunø Knob: Nord Pool horizons (init. 08/10/ :00 (GMT), first 12h not in plan) 12:00 18:00 0:00 6:00 12:00 18:00 0:00 Oct Oct Oct Tunø Knob: Nord Pool horizons (init. 10/10/ :00 (GMT), first 12h not in plan) 12:00 18:00 0:00 6:00 12:00 18:00 0:00 Oct Oct Oct Tunø Knob: Nord Pool horizons (init. 29/06/ :00 (GMT), first 12h not in plan) 12:00 18:00 0:00 6:00 12:00 18:00 0:00 Jun Jul Jul Tunø Knob: Nord Pool horizons (init. 08/10/ :00 (GMT), first 12h not in plan) 12:00 18:00 0:00 6:00 12:00 18:00 0:00 Oct Oct Oct Tunø Knob: Nord Pool horizons (init. 10/10/ :00 (GMT), first 12h not in plan) 12:00 18:00 0:00 6:00 12:00 18:00 0:00 Oct Oct Oct Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 17
18 Quantile regression A (additive) model for each quantile: Q(τ) = α(τ)+f 1 (x 1 ;τ)+f 2 (x 2 ;τ)+...+f p (x p ;τ) Q(τ) x j α(τ) Quantile of forecast error from an existing system. Variables which influence the quantiles, e.g. the wind direction. Intercept to be estimated from data. f j ( ;τ) Functions to be estimated from data. Notes on quantile regression: Parameter estimates found by minimizing a dedicated function of the prediction errors. The variation of the uncertainty is (partly) explained by the independent variables. Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 18

25 SDE approach Correlation structures May , 18h October , 00h Time 48 April , 12h May , 12h Time Use of SDEs provides a possibility to model eg. time varying and wind power dependent correlation structures. SDEs provide a perfect framework for combined wind and solar power forecasting.

29 Type of forecasts required Point forecasts (normal forecasts); a single value for each time point in the future. Sometimes with simple error bands. Probabilistic or quantile forecasts; the full conditional distribution for each time point in the future. Scenarios; probabilistic correct scenarios of the future wind power production.

30 Value of knowing the uncertainties Case study: A 15 MW wind farm in the Dutch electricity market, prices and measurements from the entire year From a phd thesis by Pierre Pinson (2006). The costs are due to the imbalance penalties on the regulation market. Value of an advanced method for point forecasting: The regulation costs are diminished by nearly 38 pct. compared to the costs of using the persistance forecasts. Added value of reliable uncertainties: A further decrease of regulation costs up to 39 pct. Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 30
31 Wind power asymmetrical penalties The revenue from trading a specific hour on NordPool can be expressed as P S Bid+ { P D (Actual Bid) if P U (Actual Bid) if P S is the spot price and P D /P U is the down/up reg. price. Actual > Bid Actual < Bid The bid maximising the expected revenue is the following quantile E[P S ] E[P D ] E[P U ] E[P D ] in the conditional distribution of the future wind power production. Wind and Solar Power Forecasting, ESI 101 Course, July 2014 p. 31
32 Wind power asymmetrical penalties It is difficult to know the regulation prices at the day ahead level research into forecasting is ongoing. The expression for the quantile is concerned with expected values of the prices just getting these somewhat right will increase the revenue. A simple tracking of C D and C U is a starting point.

39 VG-Integration: Lessons Learned in Denmark (> 5 pct wind): Tools for Wind/Solar Power forecasting are important (> 10 pct wind): Tools for reliable probabilistic forecasting are needed (> 15 pct wind): Consider Energy Systems Integration (not Power alone) (> 20 pct wind): Consider Methods for Demand Side Management (> 25 pct wind): New methods for finding the optimal spinning reserve are needed (based on prob. forecasting of wind/solar power production) Joint forecasts of wind, solar, load and prices are essential Limited need - or no need - for classical storage solutions Huge need for virtual storage solutions Intelligent interaction between power, gas, DH and biomass very important ICT and use of data, adaptivity, intelligence, and stochastic modelling is very important The largest national strategic research project: Centre for IT-Intelligent Energy Systems in Cities - CITIES have been launched 1.

41 Wind Power Forecasting - Lessons Learned The forecasting models must be adaptive (in order to taken changes of dust on blades, changes roughness, etc., into account). Reliable estimates of the forecast accuracy is very important (check the reliability by eg. reliability diagrams). Reliable probabilistic forecasts are important to gain the full economical value. Use more than a single MET provider for delivering the input to the prediction tool this improves the accuracy of wind power forecasts with pct. Estimates of the correlation in forecasts errors important. Forecasts of cross dependencies between load, prices, wind and solar power are important. Probabilistic forecasts are very important for asymmetric cost functions. Probabilistic forecasts can provide answers for questions like What is the probability that a given storage is large enough for the next 5 hours? What is the probability of an increase in wind power production of more that 50 pct of installed power over the next two hours? What is the probability of a down-regulation due to wind power on more than x GW within the next 4 hours. The same conclusions hold for our tools for eg. solar power forecasting.
