- Abstract
Electricity generation is a complex and dynamic process that is sensitive to demand, calls often due to the weather. The present research paper aims to investigate the association of weather variables with electricity generation, which will, in turn, help improve the efficiency of power plants. We apply algorithms and develop models to predict how much energy will be generated based on the past energy generation numbers (both renewable and non-renewable) and related weather metrics (such as temperature, wind speed and cloud cover). Our results show how weather predictors can improve the forecasting of electricity needs to create a better-balanced system for electricity supply. According to the study, optimisation of the activities in generators contributes mitigations of energy loss in the transmission of energy. Also maximizes generation of effective capacity and supports the sustainability of energy.
