✦ AI Summary

Enlighten announced the registration of a new patent for AI-based solar power generation forecasting technology.

The patent is titled "Electronic Device and Method for Predicting Solar Power Generation."

The technology simultaneously uses local forecast (LDAPS) and global forecast (GDAPS) and applies a cross-attention technique to improve forecast accuracy and stability.

Enlighten said it has announced the registration of a new patent for AI-based solar power generation forecasting technology. The new patent aims to improve the accuracy and stability of solar power generation forecasts.

Enlighten said the patent is titled "Electronic Device and Method for Predicting Solar Power Generation." Enlighten said it registered the patent for technology that improves solar power generation forecasting performance.

The core of the technology lies in simultaneously using two types of weather forecasts with different characteristics. Forecast 1 used is local forecast (LDAPS), which analyzes a narrow area in fine detail, while Forecast 2 is global forecast (GDAPS), which covers a broad area. The technology inputs LDAPS and GDAPS at the same time.

Conventional methods relied on only one forecast, but the new technology uses more weather data in its analysis than existing approaches. It also applies the AI-based "cross-attention" technique. Rather than simply combining the two forecast datasets, the method cross-references them.

Through this structure, it selectively extracts the strengths of each forecast and fuses them into a single core piece of information. As a result, forecast accuracy improved significantly compared with using a single forecast. The error rate reached a low level of around 5%.

Although major errors can occur in a particular forecast due to unusual weather events and other factors, stable forecasting is possible through supplementation from the other forecast. Lee Young-ho, CEO of Enlighten, described the patent as a technology that complements weather forecasts with different characteristics in a mutually supportive way.

Lee said the patent is a technology that secures both forecast accuracy and stability at the same time. He added that the company will continue to advance the technology and aims to prove its competitiveness in the global renewable energy market, beyond Korea.
