8 April – Machine Learning for Solar Forecasting in the National Grid ESO
Date: 8 April 2019
Time: 12:00pm
Location: Wean Hall 3701
Speaker: James Kelloway
Topic: Machine Learning for Solar Forecasting in the National Grid ESO
Abstract: The National Grid ESO has publicly committed to being capable of running the Great Britain electricity grid fossil fuel free by 2025. To do this, we will need to embrace new methods and new technologies. This talk shows how National Grid ESO is using machine learning techniques to better predict solar PV across GB and how we are using the tech to open up access to data to give consumers clearer choices to choose to use energy at its cleanest.
