Prediction of wind energy using intelligent approach

Wind energy is one of the most promising renewable energy sources for power generation. As India has wind energy potential of around 45195 MW and the installed capacity is 17967 MW only. Keeping in view of the aforesaid prediction of wind energy is an important study for harnessing the wind energy potential. Various conventional and intelligent models are available in the literature for the prediction of wind Power. In this paper fuzzy logic and ANN based models have been developed and presented for the prediction of wind power using wind speed and air density as input parameters. Obtained results are compared with the available models and found better. Therefore, the proposed ANN model may be useful for the prediction of wind power.
