Abstract

To address issues in existing photovoltaic power forecasting, such as redundant historical data, strong correlations in consecutive time series, large training datasets, slow model convergence, and the significant randomness and nonlinearity of power outputs, this paper proposes a novel forecasting approach based on improved grey relational analysis, dual-modal hybrid decomposition, and a multi-branch deep learning model. First, meteorological variables positively correlated with PV power output are selected through correlation analysis. Their positive correlation coefficients are incorporated as weights into an enhanced grey relational analysis framework, combined with a logarithmic normalization strategy to improve the accuracy and discriminative capability of similar-day sample selection. Next, a dual-modal hybrid decomposition is performed on the PV power time series using empirical wavelet transform (EWT) and swarm decomposition (SWD), enabling multi-scale feature complementarity and generating more comprehensive input features. For model construction, a multi-branch input-parallel deep learning architecture, MB-T2V-KSA Net (Multi-Branch input-parallel Time2Vec-BiGRU-KAN-SA), is developed. This model integrates Time2Vec encoding to capture both linear and periodic temporal features, employs a Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BiGRU) to learn contextual dependencies, utilizes the Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (KAN) for high-order feature interaction, and applies a Self-Attention (SA) mechanism to adaptively fuse multi-source features. Together, these components significantly enhance the model’s ability in temporal modeling and feature integration.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves high prediction accuracy and robustness regardles of weather type classification and diverse typical weather conditions, with particularly strong performance in adverse weather scenarios.
