Abstract

Large-scale grid-connected operation of photo-voltaic power station will influence the stable and economic operation of the grid. Effective forecast method of photo-voltaic power outputs is benefit for the whole scheduling and reasonable operating of the grid. A prediction method based on Markov chain absolute distribution is proposed to realize the short-term forecast of photo-voltaic power outputs. The impacts of different state spaces numbers and different prediction steps on the prediction accuracy are analyzed. The simulation results show the validity of this method using history data at a photo-voltaic station.
