Transfer learning boosts solar PV forecasting accuracy under data scarcity

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new research paper proposes a transfer learning framework combined with Conformalized Quantile Regression (CQR) to improve solar photovoltaic (PV) power forecasting, particularly in regions with scarce historical data due to load shedding. By pre-training a model on data from Alice Springs, Australia, and then adapting it to simulated Bangladesh PV data, the study demonstrated significant improvements. The transfer learning approach reduced RMSE by up to 23.7% with only one month of target data and achieved 94.3% empirical coverage with narrower prediction intervals. AI

IMPACT Improves accuracy and reliability of solar power forecasting in data-scarce environments, potentially aiding grid stability and renewable energy integration.
