Abstract

In energy management, short-term load forecasting (STLF) is vital for maintaining the balance between demand and supply and ensuring operational efficiency in smart grids. We propose a hybrid model combining Multi-Linear Regression (MLR), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Feedforward Neural Networks (FFNN) to enhance forecast accuracy while maintaining computational efficiency. The model was validated on real datasets from Qatar and Panama City across 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, and 1-hour resolutions. Compared to traditional hybrid models, it achieves significant improvements, including a 29% reduction in RMSE and 59% faster training times. These results demonstrate the model's applicability for real-time STLF in dynamic power grids, with direct implications for energy-efficient mechatronic systems.
