Abstract

The increasing proportion of bifacial photovoltaic modules (Bi-PVM) in new projects makes the operation of photovoltaic system (PVS) more complicated, and it is difficult to accurately predict the power of the PVS. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a new power prediction method for PVS based on Bi-PVM. Firstly, the equal proportion digital twin model of the example project is constructed. The superposition principle is used to analyze the factors affecting the power generation performance of Bi-PVM, and the characteristic project is constructed according to the analysis results. Secondly, the bifacial correction coefficient is introduced to reduce the parameter error caused by Bi-PVM to the prediction model. On this basis, a power prediction machine learning model based on bidirectional gated recurrent unit (Bi-GRU) network is established. Finally, a simulation experiment is carried out on the TensorFlow machine learning platform. With the actual operation data of a PV power station in Jiuquan, China, the simulation analysis is carried out under four weather types, namely, sunny day, rainy day, snowy day and complex and changeable day, respectively, which verified the correctness and excellence of the proposed method.
