- Multi-step short-term solar energy forecasting using Fourier-enhanced BiLSTM and neural additive modelsPublication . Seman, Laio Oriel; Stefenon, Stefano Frizzo; Yow, Kin-Choong; Coelho, Leandro dos Santos; Mariani, Viviana CoccoAccurate short and medium-term forecasting is important for mitigating uncertainty and enabling efficient energy grid management. While traditional machine learning and deep learning models offer improved accuracy, they often lack interpretability. To address these limitations, this study proposes a hybrid forecasting framework, called FNO-BiLSTM-NAM, that combines a Fourier Neural Operator (FNO) to extract spectral–temporal features, a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) network to model sequential dependencies, and a Neural Additive Model (NAM) to quantify feature-wise contributions. The model incorporates multi-scenario forecasting to support energy operators under different uncertainty levels. Experiments conducted on a dataset from a 5 MW PhotoVoltaic (PV) plant demonstrate the superiority of the model. For a 6-hour forecast horizon, the proposed FNO-BiLSTM-NAM model achieved a mean absolute error of 0.0712 and mean squared error of 0.0092, outperforming benchmark models across short- to medium-term horizons. Furthermore, the spectral analysis of the FNO revealed low-pass filtering behavior, highlighting the ability of the model to suppress high-frequency noise. Comparative experiments with five machine and deep learning baseline models confirm the robustness and generalization capacity of the framework. These results underscore the potential of the proposed model for enhancing PV energy forecasting accuracy while maintaining transparency across dynamic operating conditions.
- Spatiotemporal wind energy forecasting: a comprehensive survey and a deep equilibrium-based case study with stemGNNPublication . Aquino, Luiza Scapinello; Seman, Laio Oriel; Mariani, Viviana Cocco; Coelho, Leandro Dos Santos; Stefenon, Stefano Frizzo; González, Gabriel VillarrubiaAccurate spatiotemporal wind energy forecasting is essential for ensuring grid stability and maximizing the efficiency of renewable energy systems. This paper addresses the challenge of modeling the complex spatial and temporal dependencies inherent in wind power generation by presenting a comprehensive survey of existing spatiotemporal forecasting methods and introducing an innovative deep learning approach. The proposed model integrates a Graph Neural Network (GNN) to represent wind turbines as nodes within a graph, capturing spatial relationships, while a Deep Equilibrium Model (DEQ) enables equilibrium-based inference to handle highly nonlinear wind patterns. A Sequence-to-Sequence (Seq2Seq) architecture further manages temporal dependencies. The method was validated using a real-world dataset of wind power generation, outperforming baseline models across multiple forecast horizons and maintaining stable accuracy across short- and mid-term predictions. Results demonstrate that the proposed GNN with DEQ effectively models both spatial and temporal dynamics for Seq2Seq data, improving prediction accuracy while maintaining computational efficiency. This study highlights the potential of equilibrium-based spatiotemporal graph models for wind energy forecasting and provides a robust tool for better integration of wind power into modern power grids.
