谷歌的DeepMind AI項(xiàng)目可在渦輪開(kāi)始旋轉(zhuǎn)之前36小時(shí)預(yù)測(cè)發(fā)電量,，從而讓電廠能夠提前一天確定向電網(wǎng)提供的輸電量。

一年前,，谷歌與DeepMind將機(jī)器學(xué)習(xí)算法應(yīng)用于谷歌美國(guó)中部的一組風(fēng)力發(fā)電廠,。這些風(fēng)力發(fā)電廠的風(fēng)電容量達(dá)到了700兆瓦，能夠提供一座中型城市所需的電力,。

通過(guò)研究風(fēng)力發(fā)電廠,、天氣預(yù)報(bào)以及渦輪的歷史數(shù)據(jù)，經(jīng)調(diào)試的DeepMind用于在實(shí)際發(fā)電之前預(yù)測(cè)風(fēng)能發(fā)電量,。此舉也為風(fēng)力發(fā)電廠的容量帶來(lái)了更大的價(jià)值,，因?yàn)榘l(fā)電廠可以提前對(duì)向電網(wǎng)的供電量進(jìn)行規(guī)劃。

DeepMind在一份聲明中表示：“我們無(wú)法消除風(fēng)力的波動(dòng)性,，但研究的早期結(jié)果顯示,，我們能夠使用機(jī)器學(xué)習(xí)大大提升風(fēng)力發(fā)電的可預(yù)測(cè)性和其價(jià)值?！?/p>

Google’s DeepMind AI program can predict wind power output 36 hours before the turbines start spinning, allowing one to make delivery commitments to the power grid up to a day in advance.

The news comes a year after Google and DeepMind applied machine learning algorithms to Google’s fleet of wind farms in central United States. With 700 megawatts of wind power capacity, these wind farms can generate as much power needed by a medium-sized city.

By studying the wind farms, weather forecasts, and historical turbine data, DeepMind was configured to be able to predict the wind power output ahead of actual generation. This brings greater value to wind farms’ capabilities, as power delivery to the grid can be scheduled in advance.

“We can’t eliminate the variability of the wind, but our early results suggest that we can use machine learning to make wind power sufficiently more predictable and valuable,” said DeepMind in a statement.

According to the company, DeepMind’s predictions have boosted the value of Google’s wind energy by roughly 20%.
