摘要

An accurate solar energy prediction is vital in today’s world for optimizing the renewable energy systems and to lead sustainable energy future. As solar power generation depends upon the weather that changes continuously, reliable prediction is critical for balancing supply and demand, minimizing energy wastage, and enhancing grid resilience. This study employs a Random Forest Regressor to forecast solar power generation using historical meteorological data and other time-based features. By incorporating key environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation, along with temporal attributes, the model effectively captures complex, nonlinear patterns in solar power fluctuations. With an ensemble learning approach utilizing 1000 decision trees, the model enhances predictive accuracy while mitigating overfitting. This study contributes to the development of more reliable forecasting techniques, enabling smarter energy planning, improved grid stability, and transition towards a more sustainable future powered by renewable energy sources.
