Time series data for decision problems such as energy demand forecasting are often derived from uncertain assessments, and do not meet any statistical assumptions. The interval grey number becomes an appropriate representation for an uncertain and imprecise observation. In order to obtain nonlinear interval grey numbers with better forecasting accuracy, this study proposes a combined model by fusing interval grey numbers estimated by neural networks (NNs) and the grey prediction models. The proposed model first uses interval regression analysis using NNs to estimate interval grey numbers for a real valued sequence; and then a grey residual modification model is constructed using the upper and lower wrapping sequences obtained by NNs. It turns out that two different kinds of interval grey numbers can be estimated by nonlinear interval regression analysis. Forecasting accuracy on real data sequences was then examined by the best non-fuzzy performance values of the combined model. The proposed combined model performed well compared with the other interval grey prediction models considered.

Transmission, distribution, and micro-grid system operators are struggling with the increasing number of renewables and the changing nature of energy demand. This necessitates the use of prognostic methods based on ever shorter time series. This study depicted an attempt to develop an appropriate method by introducing a novel forecasting model based on the idea to use the Pareto fronts as a tool to select data in the forecasting process. The proposed model was implemented to forecast short-term electric energy demand in Poland using historical hourly demand values from Polish TSO. The study rather intended on implementing the range of different approaches—scenarios of Pareto fronts usage than on a complex evaluation of the obtained results. However, performance of proposed models was compared with a few benchmark forecasting models, including naïve approach, SARIMAX, kNN, and regression. For two scenarios, it has outperformed all other models by minimum 7.7%.
