Integrating wind variability to modelling wind-ramp events using a non-binary ramp function and deep learning models [PDF]
The forecasting of large ramps in wind power output known as ramp events is crucial for the incorporation of large volumes of wind energy into national electricity grids. Large variations in wind power supply must be compensated by ancillary energy sources which can include the use of fossil fuels.
