Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
“Wind Energy, Load and Price Forecasting towards Sustainability 2019” is a continuation of the previous and successful Special Issue, “Wind Energy, Load and Price Forecasting towards Sustainability”.
We are inviting submissions to this Sustainability Special Issue on “Wind Energy, Load and Price Forecasting towards Sustainability 2019”.
This is the second Special Issue and focuses on wind energy forecasting, load forecasting and price forecasting. Wind energy is one of the fastest growing sources of electricity worldwide. However, the availability of wind energy is not known in advance, so its large-scale integration in the power supply poses serious challenges. In order to conveniently address those challenges, wind energy forecasting plays a major role. Load forecasting has also recently acquired renewed interest with the advent of the smart grid, especially due to the growing focus on demand side-management activities. Likewise, price forecasting is of major importance in the energy industry, both for companies and customers. Hence, in this Special Issue we invite submissions exploring cutting-edge research and recent advances in the fields of wind energy forecasting, load forecasting and price forecasting, towards increased overall sustainability of the energy system from supply to demand sides.
