SUMMARY:June 18 Grid Analytics Community – Bayesian Deep Learning for Photovoltaic Power Forecasting: A Probabilistic Framework for Uncertainty Quantification and Grid Reliability Optimization
DESCRIPTION:Join the Grid Analytics Community on Thursday, June 18 at 11:00 AM CT for a presentation with Q&A/open discussion on “Bayesian Deep Learning for Photovoltaic Power Forecasting: A Probabilistic Framework for Uncertainty Quantification and Grid Reliability Optimization” led by Pablo Bustamante, Data Science and Business Intelligence Analyst at El Paso Electric.\n \nSession Description:\nThis presentation investigates solar photovoltaic (PV) power forecasting under uncertainty using machine learning, Bayesian deep learning, and decision-theoretic modeling to improve grid reliability and operational planning. Traditional forecasting methods such as linear regression, random forests, and neural networks are first evaluated using utility-scale solar and weather data, followed by the development of a Bayesian deep learning framework combining CNNs, LSTMs, and Transformer models to produce probabilistic forecasts that capture both aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty. The presentation then connects these uncertainty-aware forecasts to operational decision-making through reserve allocation and reliability assessment, demonstrating that probabilistic forecasting frameworks provide improved reliability and economic efficiency compared to traditional deterministic approaches while offering a practical pathway for renewable energy integration into modern grid operations.\n \n*UAI Utility Members can register and access all nine of our Analytics Communities via our Community Page ( https://utilityanalytics.com/communities/ ).
