Short-Term Forecasting Models for Photovoltaic Plants: Analytical versus Soft-Computing Techniques

We present and compare two short-term statistical forecasting models for hourly average electric power production forecasts of photovoltaic (PV) plants: the analytical PV power forecasting model (APVF) and the multiplayer perceptron PV forecasting model (MPVF). Both models use forecasts from numeric...
