ProLoaF is a probabilistic load forecasting project.
ProLoaF makes use of the big data paradigm that allows machine learning algorithms, trained with data from the power system field. The core comprises a recurrent neural network (encoder-decoder architecture) to predict the target variable.
The targets can vary from timerseries of PV, Wind or other generators to most commonly the total energy consumption. Both, the relevant input data history and prediction horizon are arbitrarily long and customizable for any specific need.
First, clone this Repository and initialize the submodules:
git clone --recurse-submodule https://git.rwth-aachen.de/acs/public/automation/plf/proloaf.git
or if you have already cloned the project and you are missing e.g. the open data directory for execution run:
git submodule update --init --recursive
To install all required packages first run:
pip install -r requirements.txt
On low RAM machines the option
pip install -r requirements.txt --no-cache-dir
might be necessary.
ProLoaF supports Python 3.8 and higher. For further information see Getting Started
To keep all infos on what you can do with ProLoaF and how to get there, our user documentation, is the place where you'll find all answers.
