Abstract
An example method includes, at a weather forecast time, determining a lag between a target renewable energy site and a first nearby site for which respective power measurements are correlated, selecting a first forecast look-ahead time, determining if the first forecast look-ahead time is less than or equal to the lag, determining a series of lagged power measurements at a time of forecast which constitute a series of correlation-based forecasts for power generation at the target site based on the lag, generating a set of ramp predictors incorporating correlation-based forecasts from the first site and the first forecast look-ahead time, receiving power forecast errors, applying sets of decision trees to the predictors and the power forecast errors to obtain predicted forecast errors, and generating second power forecasts for the set of look-ahead times of the target site based on the first power forecasts and the predicted forecast errors.
