Context
• This translates to:
• Wind: 251-392 GW of installed capacity (in 2016: 154 GW). • Solar PV: 230-367 GW (in 2016: 101 GW)
• Ambitious targets for the integration of renewables in EU by 2030
3
• Transition towards a more and more “weather-dependent” power system.
Challenges
4
• The development of smart grid technologies aims among others at facilitating renewables (RES) integration
• Some new challenges: • Need for cost-efficient hedging over increased uncertainties (i.e.
storage) • A high share of demand should become active to ‘fit’ generation • RES power plants should be able to provide flexibilities (i.e.
ancillary services) in a similar way as conventional plants • Appropriate market schemes should be developed to trade
flexibilities at different spatial scales • The usage of the electrical grid should be improved (i.e. through
dynamic line rating) • …
Challenges
5
Predictive management and forecasts
• To address these challenges, it is needed to develop appropriate tools for predictive management: • for different system configurations/spatial scales:
• house/customer > microgrid/feeder > regional/national • for different actors:
• aggregators, producers, retailers, TSOs, DSOs… • for different functions:
Source Figure: Hong et Fan (2016), “Probabilistic electric load forecasting: a tutorial review”, Journal of Forecasting
6
Predictive management and forecasts
• All these functions require different types of short term (few minutes – few days ahead) forecasts for: • Renewable generation (PV, wind, run-of-the-river hydro…) • Electricity & heat demand • Demand/generation flexibility potential • Electricity prices • Dynamic line rating • …
7
More and more data… Plus and minus
• Smart grid: Available information increases
o Is this an opportunity for reducing uncertainties through improvement of forecasting capabilities?
• Local demand: Emerging approaches based on smart meter data, consumers presence information etc.
• New usages like electric cars: Big data and predictive analytics • Numerical Weather predictions: Improvements thanks to
increasing computing capacities • Wind and PV forecasting: improvements through the use of
new sources of data (i.e. spatio-temporal approaches) • Availability of open data • ….

More and more data... Plus and minus
• High uncertainties in RES production and demand at local level that cannot necessarily be explained by more data
• Large errors in RES forecasting come from Numerical Weather Predictions. Necessity to go back to the fundamentals…
• Smart meters deployment is often suboptimal w.r.t. forecasting requirements in smart grids (i.e. data delivery once per day).
• Curse of dimensionality is a limit for classical forecasting techniques
• Need for adapted models able to handle large amounts of inputs without overfitting

Some more challenges…
• Use of forecasts in applications: • Extensive research on probabilistic approaches for various power
system functions. • Use of different types of forecasts (pdfs, scenarios, quantiles…) • Various optimization techniques (i.e. stochastic optimization based on
scenarios, robust optimization based on intervals…).
• “Mismatch” between research and end-users’ business practice: decision making tools at end-users are still mainly deterministic
10
Some more challenges…
• Use of forecasts in applications: • Predictability as a decision factor in the investment phase of RES
plants and storage devices. • Dimensioning of storage – temporal correlation of errors • Long term estimation of revenue from trading (evolution of electric. prices)
• Power system expansion, integration studies (i.e. 100% RES) • Multi-annual simulation of RES production and forecast errors.

Dynamic Line Rating forecasting
30
• The maximal current admissible through a line, is usually set according to some restrictive hypothesis on weather conditions
• Depending on weather characteristics (i.e. low wind, high temperature), a high current may imply a dangerous situation, the line being strongly deformed.
• However, with the same high current but under favourable weather characteristics, the cooling being more important, such deformation may not be observed. -> set a Dynamic Line Rating depending on actual or expected weather characteristics

Dynamic Line Rating forecasting
• Comparison of Static Line Rating and Real-Time Line Rating
Source: PhD R. Dupin, MINES ParisTech
• Forecasting the DLR may have several benefits : o setting of the future Available Transfer Capacities.
• Such forecasts should have high « reliability ». o The frequency of events where the DLR set points are superior to
observations should be low (~1%-2%).
o For some applications, the models should be able to provide reliable forecasts for extreme levels of probability (~0.1%-1%).

• Traditional machine learning methods provide good low quantile forecasts for level of probability superior to 1% (yellow).
• For levels of probability inferior (red), tools like the Extreme Value Theory can be used.

Dynamic Line Rating forecasting
Source: PhD R. Dupin, MINES ParisTech
• The actual RES forecasting technology is quite mature (~1985 - ….).
• However, still in some situations large forecast errors may have an important impact on power system operation
o R&D objectives: Improve RES predictability (wind, solar) at different temporal (i.e. 5 min – 10 days) and spatial scales (local, regional,…)
o Challenge: Complexity of the considered phenomena at different temporal and spatial scales.
• Forecasting of local electricity consumption & heat demand is an emerging R&D topic thanks to the availability of data from smart meters etc.
• Tendency towards techniques able to handle efficiently large amount of data (not necessirily «big data») that become available.
• However, the aim is large-scale application and a trade-off should be found between accuracy, plug&play capabilities, model chain complexity…
