Predicting Energy Consumption Using LSTM, Multi-Layer GRU and Drop-GRU Neural Networks.

With the steep rise in the development of smart grids and the current advancement in developing measuring infrastructure, short term power consumption forecasting has recently gained increasing attention. In fact, the prediction of future power loads turns out to be a key issue to avoid energy wastage and to build effective power management strategies. Furthermore, energy consumption information can be considered historical time series data that are required to extract all meaningful knowledge and then forecast the future consumption.

Predictive Management Algorithm for Controlling PV-Battery Off-Grid Energy System.

This paper introduces an energy management strategy for an off-grid hybrid energy system. The hybrid system consists of a photovoltaic (PV) module, a LiFePO4 battery pack coupled with a Battery Management System (BMS), a hybrid solar inverter, and a load management control unit. A Long Short-Term Memory network (LSTM)-based forecasting strategy is implemented to predict the available PV and battery power.
