Forecasting Monthly Electricity Demands: An Application of Neural Networks Trained by Heuristic Algorithms

Forecasting Monthly Electricity Demands: An Application of Neural Networks Trained by Heuristic Algorithms

Electricity demand forecasting plays an important role in capacity planning, scheduling, and the operation of power systems. Reliable and accurate prediction of electricity demands is therefore vital. In this study, artificial neural networks (ANNs) trained by different heuristic algorithms, includi...
