Abstract: - The electric energy generated from wind resources is now one of the most important sources in the
electrical power system. Predicting wind speed is difficult because wind characteristics are unpredictable,
highly variable, and dependent on many factors. This paper presents the design of an artificial neural network
used in wind energy forecasting that has been trained using weather data that influences wind energy
generation. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) has gained popularity in recent years due to its superior
performance. The main objective of the developed model is to improve the forecasting of energy generated
from wind farms. The developed system allows the power system operator to determine the best time to rely on
the wind farm to produce power for the electrical system without affecting the stability of the system and
reducing the cost of electricity generation due to the traditional method. The analysis is performed by
investigating wind potential and collecting data from a highly recommended source. The heatmap, covariance
and correlation methods are used to analyze the data, and then the data is used to build an Artificial Neural
Network (ANN) in MATLAB 2020. The results show very high accuracy 99.9%.

1 Introduction
Renewable Energy sources (RES) are very important
in the last few years, It occupies a large field of
study and development with increasing the fire about
global warming, increasing fossil fuels cost, air
pollution and worldwide reducing of CO2 are
forcing to switch from traditional energy source to
Renewable energy source (RES) , such as: wind ,
solar , hydro ,bio ,and nuclear energy source[1].
Using artificial intelligence is used in many
applications recently. It has been used in recent

realistic residential distribution system [2]. Beside
this, it has used to make decision regarding selection
of wind farms [3]. One of the used techniques is
neural networks which has been used in power
applications [4] and prediction [5]. Other artificial
intelligence techniques such as decision tree has
been used in power applications [6]
Increase diversity in energy sources it will be
significantly reflected on developing countries,
where RES will be the motivation of enhancing
business, green economy and creating new qualified
jobs [7].
The most type of RES use in Jordan are wind, solar
,hydro and biogas divided in transmission and
distribution network in different size from few KW
to a few MW, the Jordan government Planning to
increase accreditation on RES in the future energy
consumption plan ,Jordan’s electrical load of about
3500 MW which may reach more than 6200 MW by
2025.Wind energy is one of the strongest
possibilities to cover a portion of Jordan's energy
demands, as wind availability rates at speeds suited
for wind energy applications are deemed adequate
and perfect for energy security applications. The
wind speed reaching 7-11 m/s which is very
applicable for wind energy generation [8-9].
2 Problem Formulation
The generation power from the wind turbine
depends on weather conditions included (wind
speed, temperature, humidity, pressure and either)
this factor will effect of the generation planning.
Collecting all type of data that effect on wind power
generation and use it in Models that help predict
energy output through data, this process will help the
operator to know how much energy which will got
from the wind farm [10-11].
2.1 Wind Power Equation
The power available from the wind is given by [9]:
Pa = (1/2) ρ A V^3 (2.1)
whereas:
Pa is the amount of wind energy available in [W],
ρ is the air density in [Kg/m3],
A is the cross-sectional area in [m],
V is the wind velocity in [m/s]
The air density will change with change the weather
condition we can found it by equation (2.2):
ρ=P/(R T) (2.2)
where: P air pressure in (pa)
R specific gas constant for air in (J/(Kg.C)
T temperate in (C)
The rotor cannot extract all of the power available
from the wind stream, and the value of the extracted
power is determined by the total efficiency ŋt
equation (2.3) shown the final form of wind power
equation [9,10]:
Pa= (1/2) ρ A V3 ŋt (2.3)
From the equation (2.3) showed the variables
effecting the wind power which are Pressure,
temperate, wind velocity.
2.2 Wind Power Forecasting
The growing importance of wind power raises the
issue of understanding its behavior and its impact in
electrical sector [11]. Wind power production, being
subject to the available wind, can only controlled
within the margin of the possible production
correspondent to the available wind, thus it has
reduced control capacities [12,13]. The extraction of
energy from the wind should thus be maximized for
economic and environmental reasons. This paper
will demonstration that illustrates how to use the
proposed Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to
estimate wind power based on the input parameters
[14-15].
Neural Network Design and Methodology
A neural network is a machine learning algorithm
that mimics the human brain and is inspired by
biology. The idea of machine learning refers to a
computer's ability to learn from raw data by
automatically finding a meaningful pattern [16].
Both supervised and unsupervised learning problems
can be addressed by the NN. Supervised learning is
used in fitting situations when the input and desired
output are known . The NN works with numeric data
in these applications, and its goal is to approximate
the relationship between the input and output data.
ANNs consist of simple processing units - neurons -
subdivided into layers - an input, an output, plus one
or more hidden layers - with each connection having
a weight factor that varies according to the input and
the output [17-19].
There are two types of networks: static and
dynamic. Static networks depend only on the current
value of inputs, while dynamic networks are
governed by differential equations, which show
memory [20-23].
During supervised or unsupervised learning, the
weights associated with the connections are adjusted
based on inputs and outputs that have been presented

to the network[24]. The network is given only the
inputs in an unsupervised learning process, and it is
trained to distinguish different classes of data.
ANNs may also be classified as feed forward and
recurrent [25]. Feed forward networks, which are
without directed cycles in their topology graph, are
typically used to predict wind speed and wind
power. Figure 1 shows the typical structure of a
multilayer perceptron, which is typically trained by
supervised learning and is often used for wind
forecasting [26].
Fig. 1: Structure of a multilayer perceptron network.
Feed forward ANN
The generic feed forward ANN model consists of
numerous layers of neurons, each of which is
referred to as a perceptron. It's worth noting that the
input layer isn't named a perceptron because it
doesn't do any calculations [27-29]. Furthermore,
each neuron gets a large number of input signals
while only producing a single output signal [30-34].
The weighted sum of the neuron's inputs is
computed, and the output is then determined using
one of the typically used activation functions, such
as sign, step, sigmoid, or linear feature. The sign and
step measures are known as hard boundary functions
because their values abruptly shift at a specific point,
making them ideal for decision-making applications
like categorization and pattern recognition [35-38].
Recurrent ANN
Feed forward ANN does not entirely replicate the
human brain. As a result, literature has proposed a
recurrent ANN with feedback loops from its outputs
to the input. The insertion of such loops improved
the ANN's learning capabilities. The Hopfield
network is a sort of recurrent ANN that works by
feeding each network outcome back to all inputs. In
order to recover a huge number of essential memory
storage, this sort of ANN demands larger storage
capacity [39-42].
2.3 Data Processing
The data for this thesis was obtained for the south of
Jordan and included a variety of weather data it was
4735 column and 41 row it was need analyse and
filtering. The information was gathered from an
internet source (World Weather Online), which
provides a wide range of information. The data was
collected between July 1, 2008, and June 16, 2021.
The data Contains many factors that have no effect
on wind power such as weather Disc, moon phase,
moonset, UV index …etc. we began by analysing all
of the variables that affect wind energy output,
including wind speed, average temperature,
humidity, visibility, pressure, dew point, wind gusts,
and total precipitation.
Fig. 2: The analyzing Weather data With Power
The data are now ready to be analyzed using two
techniques: heat map, correlation matrix, and
covariance matrix. A heat map is a data visualization
approach that displays the magnitude of a
phenomenon as color in two dimensions; through it,
we can observe the impact of each element on wind
power.
2.4 MATLAB Simulation
In this section, the steps of implementing the ANN
for wind power forecasting was illustrated in details:
Step 1: read the excel sheet with the following
parameters: temperature, pressure, Dew point,
wind speed, gas constant, power coefficient, and
turbine blade length.
Step 2: Using a Matlab script, code the wind
power equation and compute it for all data (from
year 2008 - 2021).
Step 3: Using a Matlab script, code the heat map
and compute it for all parameters and observe

3.1 Covariance and Correlation Matrices
Covariance is a measure of the relationship between
two random variables, and statistics principles can
help investors monitor it. The statistic measures how
much and how far the variables change in
tandem. To put it another way, it's a measure of the
variance between two variables.
matrix of covariance Determines the nature of
relationship between the variables, with a negative
value indicating an inverse relation and a positive
value indicating a direct relationship between the
two variables being investigated. Except for pressure
(-0.004900) and dew point(-0.000734), all
parameters in Table 1 exhibit a positive relationship
with wind power. Also the Pressure have negative
relationship with wind speed (-0.005496), Visibility
(-0.009578) , Dew point (-0.002461), wind gust (-
0.000583) and total Precip (-0.005504). Another

Table 3 presented two approaches for training neural
networks, with the feed forward method
outperforming the second strategy in terms of SSE
and MSE. To get the lowest possible error in
training, the ANN should include two layers, each
with 50 and 10 neurons.
Table 2 showed that the high degree of correlation is
between wind speed (-0.427899) and wind power
(strong proportional relation), whereas the poorest
relationship with power is Dew point (-0.0542)
parameter (weak inverse relation).

neurons in layer2. First we started changed the
number of neurons in layer1 and keep the neurons
constant in layer2 , after that we keep neurons in
layer1 and changed neurons in layer2 in three step 5,
10 and 15, and each training's regression results
were recorded. The best regression results (0.9995)
were obtained with 50 neurons in the first layer and

Many training sessions employing the Feed forward
back-prop method were held in this part. Each
training contains a different amount of variables as
well as neuron count. These completed trainings
assist us in illustrating the optimal variable to use in
the wind power generation forecast procedure. The
best training was trial 27, which included
Temperature, Humidity, Visibility, and Pressure as

Training using three variables
As shown in Table (5) it can be seen that the best
three variables can use for training are Temperature
& Humidity & Pressure with 50 neurons the
regression was (0.67130) and the MSE was
(0.00161), the result showed in figure.11.

humidity and pressure with 50 neurons.
Training using Four variables
The best Forecasting of all training is the forecast of
wind power using the combination of four specified
parameters (temperature, humidity, visibility, and
pressure), and as shown in figure 12, increasing the
number of neurons up to 40 had a favorable
influence on the quality of the forecasting. However,
in terms of amplitudes and frequency of calculated
wind speeds, the combined parameters
Forecastingsurpasses the other techniques in terms
of regression and MSE.

4 Conclusions
In this paper, a model of ANN with Weather
conduction was built via MATLAB-SIMULINK as
a real case study. A covariance and correlation
matrices are proposed to study the covariance
between each pair of components and the correlation
between variables of the data used. All parameters,
temperature, humidity, visibility, and pressure
exhibit a positive relationship with wind power.
Feed forward back-prop technique and Layer
Recurrent ANN are used. The performance of the
proposed approach was assessed and validated by
the Regression, SSE and MSE. The best regression
results were obtained with 50 neurons in the first
layer and 10 neurons in the second using feed
forward technique. For Different variables it can be
seen that, the best training was the trial 27, which
included temperature, humidity, visibility, and
pressure as training variables with 40 neurons. The
accuracy of the proposed system reaches 99.9%.
