A Multi-scale, Multi-Model, Machine-Learning Solar Forecasting Technology
- IBM, Yorktown Heights, NY (United States). Thomas J. Watson Research Center
The goal of the project was the development and demonstration of a significantly improved solar forecasting technology (short: Watt-sun), which leverages new big data processing technologies and machine-learnt blending between different models and forecast systems. The technology aimed demonstrating major advances in accuracy as measured by existing and new metrics which themselves were developed as part of this project. Finally, the team worked with Independent System Operators (ISOs) and utilities to integrate the forecasts into their operations.
