ANN-based short-term load forecasting in electricity markets

This paper proposes an artificial neural network (ANN)-based short-term load forecasting technique that considers electricity price as one of the main characteristics of the system load, demonstrating the importance of considering pricing when predicting loading in today's electricity markets. Historical load data from the Ontario Hydro system as well as pricing information from the neighboring system are used for testing, showing the good performance of the proposed method.
