SkyGPT: Probabilistic Short-term Solar Forecasting Using Synthetic Sky Videos from Physics-constrained VideoGPT

1 code implementation20 Jun 2023 Yuhao Nie, Eric Zelikman, Andea Scott, Quentin Paletta, Adam Brandt

Furthermore, we feed the generated future sky images from the video prediction models for 15-minute-ahead probabilistic solar forecasting for a 30-kW roof-top PV system, and compare it with an end-to-end deep learning baseline model SUNSET and a smart persistence model.
