The Value of Wind Forecasting
风电预测的价值
• Historically in U.S., wind generation simply “show up”
and grid operators take the necessary measures to
incorporate it
• 起初,风电作为新生事物出现,电网运营商采取措施接纳
• Wind forecasting vital at higher levels of wind
penetration to cope with uncertainty of when and
how much to expect from wind
• 风电比重增加后,预测对于应对风电何时出力、发电量多少的不确定
性问题上很必要
• Wind forecasts can reduce costs through better unit
commitment decisions, reduced fuel consumption
and lower emissions from fossil fuel plants if factored
into day-ahead scheduling commitment.
• 预测可以通过调度计划/供应合约来降低成本,减少常规电厂的燃料
消耗,节能减排

Importance of Wind Forecasting Being Widely
Recognized
风电预测得以广泛认可的意义
• “enhanced measurement and
forecasting of variable generation
output is needed to ensure bulk power
system reliability,” and that wind
forecasting “must be incorporated into
real-time operating practices as well as
day-to-day operational planning”
(NERC)
• “The seamless integration of wind
plant output forecasting—into both
power market operations and utility
control room operations—is a critical
next step in accommodating large
penetrations of wind energy in power
systems” (DOE 20% report)
• “加强对发电输出变
量的测量和预测对于
确保电力系统安全运
行十分必要,” 因此风
电预测“必须纳入实
时和日常运行规划”
(NERC)
• “风电场出力预测—
在电力市场运行和电
力公司控制室运行中
发挥作用—是帮助电
力系统加大风电接入
比重的关键一步” (美
国能源部 20% 报告)
Central Wind Forecasting Taking Hold…

• In some markets, wind
generators are required to
offer a wind power forecast
to the power purchaser or to
the grid operator
• Central wind forecasting is
becoming more prevalent
• Central wind forecasts are
administered for multiple
wind generators by a utility
or transmission operator,
typically with the assistance
of a wind power forecasting
company

Types of Wind Power Forecasts
风电预测的类型
• Persistence
• 持续性预报
– Assumes past value equals
– 假设过去值等同未来值
future value
– Reasonable accurate for next 1- – 对下一到两个小时而言准
确性还可以,但准确度随
2 hours but accuracy diminishes
时间推移锐减很厉害
quickly over time
• Climatological
– Long-term or average value
– Outperforms persistence
further out than 4-6 hours
– Actual wind production at any
particular time may be far
different than climatological
forecast
• 气候预报
– 长期或平均值
– 超出持续性预报四到六小
时
– 具体时间点上的实际风电
发电量可能与气候预报给
出的数值差距很大
Types of Wind Power Forecasts (2)
风电预测类型(2)
• Central wind power forecasts
use numerical weather forecast
models
– Three-dimensional
– Rely on physical laws related to
atmospheric motion
• These types of models have
trouble with large-scale weather
features that evolve over one-totwo weeks
• Used in combination with
statistical methods for shortterm (1-2 hours) and long-term
(>14 days)
• 集中式风电预测使用数
值气象预测模型
– 三维
– 依据大气运动的物理规
律
• 这类模型对长达1-2
周的大范围天气变化
预测准确度较差
• 与统计方法配合运用
进行短期(1-2 小时)和
长期(>14小时)预测
Different Types of Forecasts
风电预测的不同形式
• Hour-ahead wind forecasts
•
apply updates to generate
forecasts as frequently as 5minutes for the next four to six
•
hours ahead
• Day-ahead wind power forecasts
provide hourly forecasts for the
next two-to-four days and are
•
typically updated every 6 to 12
hours
• Situational awareness wind
forecast is used in real time for
severe weather events
“小时级”风电预测可为
之后的四到六小时提供该
时段每五分钟的出力预测
“日前”风电预测可为之

实时预测帮助
Ramp Forecasts
爬坡预测
• Used to predict potential large •
swings in wind generation (up
and down)
•
• More challenging than
conventional wind forecasting; •
subject to large errors
• Not in place at most utilities or
RTOs in U.S. but expected to be
implemented in near future
曾预测潜在风电(上下)
波动
比常规风电预测更有挑战
性; 可能出现大的误差
多数美国电力公司和区域
输电运营组织尚未开展这
项预测,但预计近期就能
开始
Ensemble Forecasts
集合预报
• Involves using multiple wind power
forecasting methodologies or
providers
• May weigh different forecasts based
on accuracy in certain weather
conditions
• Question is whether increase in
accuracy justifies higher cost
• Germany uses an ensemble wind
forecast and found reductions in
wind forecast error of 4.2%
• California ISO determined no
additional value from using multiple
wind power forecast vendors unless
rate paid to wind power forecasting
companies based more on wind
forecast accuracy
• 采用多种风电预测方法/服务商
• 针对特定天气条件的预测准确
度,可以综合运用不同的预测
方式
• 问题是预测准确度的提高能否
值回付出的额外成本
• 德国采用集合预测的方式,证
明可以降低4.2%的预测误差
• 加州电力调度中心认为,除非
采用与预测准确度直接挂钩的
付费方式,否则不值得雇用多

Data Requirements for Wind Generators for
Input into Wind Forecasts Becoming More
Common
对风机出力数据提供的要求比之前加强
• New York ISO requires
metrological and plant
output data, with daily
penalties of the greater of
$500 or $20/MW if data is
not provided
• Other utilities and RTOs
also require metrological
and plant output data but
do not impose penalties
• 纽约电力调度中心(ISO) 强制
要求提交气象和电量数据,若不
提供数据,每日罚金按照总额
500美元,或者单位兆瓦20美元
的费率计算,两者取其高
• 其他电力公司和区域输电运营机
构也要求提交气象和电量数据,
但是没有惩罚措施
