Abstract

There are incredibly renewable outlets such as solar and wind intermittent, and machine reliability is hard to sustain with the intolerable balance of green energy resources. Because of population growth and technological development, global energy demand is increasing exponentially. However, civilization must address a stable energy source for two benefits, a cost-effective and sustainable basis for future renewable energy production. Solar Energy is a platform for green energy and is a potential means of solving problems that face a possible energy system. The power output is primarily determined by the properties of the incoming radiation and solar panels. Precise and accurate knowledge of these variables provides a consistent model for predicting the solar future. Solar power forecasts would have a significant effect on the viability of massive solar energy projects. This study presents a new approach to predict the expected amount of energy to be produced from Photovoltaics using a hybrid deep neural network based on a combination of extended short-term memory networks (LSTM) and convolutional neural networks (CNN), taking into account the energy of electrons and photons as well as elements and climatic conditions as input data.
