The
difficulty of maintaining a balanced energy supply and demand has emerged as a
key issue, creating a number of issues around the globe as a result of the
rapidly increasing global population and industrial growth. This situation
emphasizes the value of performing additional study on power generation and
demand forecasts using machine learning approaches, particularly in Sri Lanka.
In this analysis, we concentrate on projecting how much electricity two
particular power plants, Laxapana and Mahaweli, will produce in the future. Our
method involves parameterizing the net electricity generating data for each
power plant as well as the hydro inflow data from multiple sub-power stations.
We use a number of machine learning methods, such as Lasso Regression, Random
Forest, and XGBoost. To further improve our models, we use methods like feature
engineering and hyperparameter tuning with GridSearchCV and RandomizedSearchCV.
In order to further enhance the predictive performance, we use model stacking.
