This study presents a hybrid model that leverages both machine learning and statistical techniques to predict solar power output. By integrating climate principles with ML algorithms, the proposed approach enhances forecasting accuracy. . into the future using local time-series weather observation data. Specifically, we will use data from the National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB)1, which conveniently i cludes both weather and solar intensity measurements output in the near future can be estimated with greater accuracy. Working. . by Adele Kuzmiakova, Gael Colas and Alex McKeehan, graduate students from Stanford University This is our final project for the CS229: "Machine Learning" class in Stanford (2017). Language: Python, Matlab, R Goal: predict the hourly power. . This paper proposes a model called X-LSTM-EO, which integrates explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), long short-term memory (LSTM), and equilibrium optimizer (EO) to reliably forecast solar power generation. The approach includes data collection, pre-processing, feature selection, model selection, training, evaluation, and deployment.
