Many of these methods are statistical based methods which include time series, regression, Box-Jenkins model, exponential smoothing and so on. However, the statistical models offer limpidity in data interpretation and sensible accuracy in load forecasting but characterized by the problems of limited modeling and hefty computational effort which makes them less desirable than the intelligent techniques. Recently, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been a better substitute. Among the AI methods, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have got some attention from a lot of researchers in this area due to its flexibility in data modeling. In this paper, ANN for electric load forecasting is proposed.
