Power Load Forecasting Based on the Indicators of Industrialization and Urbanization

Abstract

In this article, through selecting and calculating of one city’s index of industrialization and urbanization from 1990 to 2005, we established multiple linear regression model by industrialization and urbanization index as a parameter based on classical linear regression model. Then test the model by historical data of power consumption from 2006 to 2008. The test error shows that the model of the city power load forecasting result is quite satisfactory, so we use it to predict electrical load in 2011-2015. The result can provide reference for the planning of the Grid.
