The wind power industry has experienced remarkable growth due to technological advancements and innovative business models. In 2020, the global installed wind power capacity reached 93 GW, marking a significant 52.96% increase compared to the previous year. This growth highlights the industry’s pivotal role in addressing energy needs and sustainability challenges. Timely wind energy forecasting is critical due to the nonlinear relationship between wind speed and power generation—however, the complexity and uncertainty of natural wind factors present challenges, necessitating effective forecasting methods. A deep learning-based approach named Dense and Dropout Networks (DDN) is introduced to address these challenges, employing Grid Search Optimization techniques. The model consists of eight dense layers for intricate data pattern recognition and a “ReLU” activation function. A dropout layer with a rate of 0.4 is integrated to enhance generalization and mitigate overfitting. The optimization process combines grid search with cross-validation to determine optimal hyperparameters.
