Abstract
A method is provided for merging different load forecasts for power grid centers. Area load forecasts are accepted from load forecast engines. A relational database saves load forecast engine data. A comprehensive operating plan integrates individual load forecasts into a composite load forecast to present a comprehensive, synchronized and harmonized load forecast.
Claims21
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a system comprising a processing device, data describing area load forecasts associated with multi-stage engines, wherein at least one multi-stage engine of the multi-stage engines is an engine external to the system;
- and
- integrating the data describing the area load forecasts into a composite load forecast.
A system, comprising:
- a memory to store computer-executable instructions;
- and
- a processor, coupled to the memory, that executes or facilitates execution of the computer-executable instructions to at least:
- receive data describing area load forecasts associated with a plurality of multi-stage engines;
- and
- integrate a set of the load forecasts into a composite load forecast representing a synchronized load forecast associated with resources of a power grid.
A computer-readable storage device having components stored thereon that, in response to execution, cause an apparatus comprising a processor to perform operations, the components comprising:
- a set of multi-stage engine components configured to generate area load forecasts;
- and
- a demand forecast integrator component configured to integrate, based on a criterion, at least a subset of the area load forecasts into a composite load forecast.
A system, comprising:
- means for receiving data describing area load forecasts associated with a set of multi stage engines;
- and
- means for integrating a set of the load forecasts into a composite load forecast representing a synchronized load forecast associated with a power grid.
