Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic power prediction technology, and specifically to a method for ultra-short-term power prediction of distributed photovoltaic clusters based on cloud-to-ground mapping matching. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous growth of distributed photovoltaic (PV) installed capacity, the significant uncertainty in its power output poses a severe challenge to the safe and stable operation of the power system. Accurate PV power forecasting is considered an effective and economical means to mitigate this adverse effect. In practical applications, due to the small capacity of individual distributed PV sites and their limited impact on the overall power grid, power system operators are more concerned with the total power forecasting of distributed PV clusters within a region.

[0003] Current mainstream photovoltaic (PV) power forecasting methods typically rely on surface meteorological observation data or numerical weather prediction data to achieve high forecast accuracy. However, most distributed PV sites are not equipped with dedicated meteorological observation equipment, and acquiring high spatiotemporal resolution weather forecast data covering a wide area is costly. These factors significantly limit the application of traditional forecasting methods in regional distributed PV power forecasting.

[0004] In reality, the core factor influencing photovoltaic (PV) power output is the solar irradiance received by the PV modules, which is directly affected by cloud distribution. Therefore, satellite cloud imagery, which reflects the dynamic changes of cloud cover over a wide area, has become an important source of information for improving the accuracy of regional distributed PV power prediction. Satellite cloud imagery possesses advantages such as wide coverage and high temporal resolution, and has received widespread attention in PV power prediction research in recent years.

[0005] Most existing prediction methods directly use the entire satellite cloud image as model input, without fully considering the spatiotemporal correspondence between cloud distribution and ground-based photovoltaic (PV) sites. Due to the dispersed layout and small capacity of distributed PV sites, their power output is primarily influenced by local cloud clusters surrounding the sites. The entire satellite cloud image often covers a large amount of meteorological areas unrelated to the target site, introducing redundant information. This redundancy not only interferes with the model's learning of key features, reducing prediction performance, but also significantly increases the model's computational burden. Therefore, effectively extracting key cloud features from satellite cloud images that are relevant to changes in PV power in the target area and improving the prediction accuracy of distributed PV power is a critical problem that urgently needs to be solved.
