为应对云层动态变化复杂、光伏功率与环境因素关系高度非线性的建模难题,提出一种融合 Transformer 与 Mamba 的多模态深度学习框架,通过联合建模天空图像的时空特征与红外光谱特征,实现更高精度的光伏功率预测。该研究采用Transformer建模云层运动的时序动态,利用Mamba提取红外光谱信息,并通过跨模态特征融合建立天空图像与发电功率之间的非线性关联。实验基于斯坦福天空图像与光伏发电数据集,验证了该模型在天空图像预测和光伏发电预测两方面的性能。消融实验结果表明,结合红外光谱、时序建模和多尺度特征提取的完整模型在图像预测任务中取得最优均方根误差(13.04 kW)和结构衡量指标(0.94653),同时在光伏功率预测任务中相较现有方法误差降低4.5%。在典型多云天气场景下,模型能较好地跟踪云层遮挡引起的光伏功率波动趋势。
Abstract
Accurately forecasting sky imagery and its impact on solar power generation is essential for intelligent grid scheduling and the efficient management of renewable energy resources. However, capturing the dynamic evolution of cloud patterns and their complex, nonlinear relationship with photovoltaic (PV) power output remains a formidable challenge. To tackle this problem, we propose a multimodal deep learning framework that integrates Transformer and Mamba architectures, effectively leveraging both spatiotemporal features from sky images and infrared spectral information to improve forecasting precision. Within this framework, the Transformer is responsible for modeling the temporal dynamics of cloud motion, while Mamba focuses on extracting salient features from infrared spectra. A cross-modal feature fusion strategy is employed to learn the intricate nonlinear mapping between sky imagery and power output. We evaluate our model on the Stanford sky image and PV generation datasets, conducting extensive experiments that demonstrate superior performance in both sky image forecasting and PV power prediction tasks. Ablation studies reveal that the full model—incorporating infrared data, temporal modeling, and multi-scale feature extraction—achieves an RMSE of 13.04kW and an SSIM of 0.94653 for image prediction. Moreover,the proposed method achieves an MAE of 1.50 kW, approximately 4.5% lower than that of the second-best Tau model.Under typical cloudy weather conditions, the model is able to effectively track the trend of photovoltaic power fluctuations caused by cloud occlusion.
