Energy security and the integration of renewable energy resources has become a hot spot of concern to the international community. The stochastic nature of the resources and usage requires more detailed energy management in which forecasting techniques will play an important role. The use of data analytics technologies to forecast energy resources and usage is considered to be an effective means to handle this issue. Furthermore, the emergence of smart sensors allows energy companies to collect large-scale energy data, while how to utilize these data to solve practical problems is a matter worth discussing.
On this background, the present Research Topic of Frontiers in Energy Research will accept contributions in the recent advances on the forecasting techniques for energy systems with data analytics and machine learning techniques.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Wind speed/power forecasting with data analytics technologies;
2. Photovoltaic power and solar irradiation prediction with machine learning techniques;
3. Load forecasting with data analytics technologies;
4. Market-based electricity price forecasting with data analytics technologies;
5. Forecasting-based optimal dispatching for energy management;
6. Probability/interval prediction for energy systems;
7. Data processing strategies for complex energy prediction issues;
8. Forecasting technologies for energy systems based on composite models;
9. Forecasting techniques for energy systems based on deep learning.
